Getting Started

For the best experience, arrive at least 30 minutes before closing. Entry is only permitted with a valid ticket and no identification is required upon arrival.

Lisbon Cathedral (Sé de Lisboa)

The cathedral’s formidable stone façade welcomes visitors into a world where Portuguese royalty was crowned and Saint Anthony was baptized. Walk the historic main nave, where ancient arches and atmospheric lighting evoke centuries of ritual and celebration. Each aisle leads to unique chapels, housing relics and pieces of Catholic artistry preserved over generations.

High Choir and Balcony

Climb the historic steps to the upper choir. From here, enjoy an intimate perspective of the cathedral’s celebrated rose window. This Romanesque stained-glass feature glows with light and color, illuminating the lofty stonework. The balcony and choir area provide sweeping views across the nave, granting a privileged vantage point for architecture enthusiasts and photographers.

Ambulatory and Chapels

Circle through the cathedral’s ambulatory to see smaller chapels radiating outwards. Each space is filled with centuries-old religious art, intricate woodwork, and sacred relics, offering insight into Lisbon’s spiritual legacy. Many of these chapels are still in use and provide a peaceful retreat from the city’s buzz outside.

Treasury Museum

Complete your visit in the Tesouro da Sé, the cathedral’s treasury museum. View an impressive collection of liturgical gold and silverwork, bejeweled vestments, and ceremonial religious items. These treasures tell the story of Lisbon’s enduring Christian practices, many still used during special ceremonies today.
