The city's oldest church, a fortress-like 12th-century cathedral blending Romanesque and Gothic styles.

Im giving 4 stars just because if you go with kids there they need to be quite because everyone is shushing 🤫 you there. And not worth it to pay 7€ for nothing to see. The only beaty was the balcony to see the amazing view. I dont think this place is a recommended place. It should be free.

Beautiful old cathedral. Explains it's history from 11th century and lots of original artefacts dating back to 18th Century. Fantastic view from the top of the cathedral.

One of Lisbon’s oldest and most recognizable landmarks, the Sé de Lisboa cuts an imposing Romanesque silhouette over the Alfama district with its twin towers and fortress-like facade that hints at the city’s long and layered history. Entry to the main interior is free, and stepping inside reveals a beautifully austere nave with thick stone columns and a quiet, contemplative atmosphere that feels like a genuine escape from the busy streets of Alfama just outside.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

Amazing building. So much history and for 7 euros you get some culture and learn about the history of Lisbon and get great views from up on the Bell tower.

Lisbon Cathedral is a must-visit place to understand the deep history of Catholics and Christianity. The small museums inside beautifully showcase our heritage, and the architecture is truly breathtaking. ⛪✨
