Visit to the Jerónimos Monastery

Lisbon's spiritual landmarks trace the city's history from its medieval fortifications to the wealth of the Age of Discovery. The grand late-Gothic Jerónimos Monastery, with its intricately carved cloisters, sits along the Belém waterfront, while the fortress-like Sé de Lisboa keeps watch over the steep streets of Alfama as the city's oldest cathedral. Both remain active symbols of Portugal's religious and architectural heritage.

  • These are active places of worship, so some areas may be closed during scheduled services.
  • Main naves and cloisters are wheelchair accessible; towers and upper terraces usually require steep original stairs.
