Honoring Portugal's Illustrious Figures
Location Lisbon

The Church of Santa Engrácia, also known as the National Pantheon, is an impressive Baroque-style monument in Lisbon. The church was originally constructed in the 17th century, but its completion was significantly delayed, only being finished in the 20th century. Today, the National Pantheon serves as the final resting place for prominent Portuguese personalities, including former presidents, writers, and artists. Visitors can explore the church's stunning architecture, characterized by its central dome and intricate decoration. The Pantheon also offers access to an upper-level terrace, where visitors can enjoy a unique view of Lisbon and the Tagus River.
