Place of worshipLocal favourite

A Mouraria parish church that the 1755 earthquake barely touched, at the top of the Escadinhas de São Cristóvão: more than 40 canvases by Bento Coelho da Silveira and the 15th-century Miranda family chapel, now being rescued through the Arte por São Cristóvão project after it was put on the World Monuments Watch.
