Arguably the most beautiful church in Lisbon. You have to visit (it's free) to see for yourself. It is also an active parish church with masses in multiple languages. As it is located on the campus of Jeronimo's Monastery, another must-see Lisbon site, there really is no excuse not to stop in. Plus historic Portuguese figures are buried/memorialized here.
This place looks much nicer than the museum next to it which attracted me to it after I completed it.
The entrance is sort of hidden away at the end of the museum and you have to make a left turn to see it. I came pretty late so I only had time to see the insides before the garden was closed.
There is one person standing at the door but he didnt do anything when I entered the church. The church has a wow factor to it as soon as you step in. From top to bottom. From bottom to top. I was worried I was going to pull my neck muscle from my quick swivels. There are nice paintings are around, nice chiseled pillars and ceiling support.
There is of course seating areas on either side of the altar. There is more than enough for a big crowd.
I highly recommend checking this place out if you are in the area. It's full of nice finishes and architecture work all over the place and a good place to pray and rest!
It belongs to the monastery but the entrance is not the same, is next to it and free entrance. Monastery is 10 euros.
Church built using the Manueline style. You'll find different elements of the navigation spirit of portuguese people in the façade.
I suggest you go with a guide who can explain you all the important details. For example, one guide told me that some of the tombs are fake.
Beautiful looking church that had a long queue to enter today.
