It is located in the old Church of Santa Engracia. A baroque church built on a Greek cross plan with a beautiful dome topped with a lantern. Situated on one of the Alfama Hills. In 1916 it was transformed into the National Pantheon. Its interior is dominated by arches and the floor and the walls of the church are decorated with marble structures of various colors. The resting place of presidents, writers, the famous fado performer Amalia Rodriguez and symbolic tombs of famous personalities, including sailors-explorers. Football lovers should bow their heads at the Eusebio sarcophagus. It is worth going up the steep stairs to the dome gallery and enjoy the beauty of Lisbon as seen from above. A beautiful place that gives you a sense of grandeur and serenity . The staff is very nice and polite. It is worth visiting this place.…

Even it used to be a church, it's now a Pantheon in which important Portuguese personalities are buried. The architechture is just impressive and the inside, too.

A place worth a visit. Downstairs you'll find some famous portuguese people. Going up, you will go through a exposition with some explanation about the building and finally the impressive cupula and the view over Lisbon. Would recommend you to visit this place!

With an amazing dome, stunning flooring, the graves of singers, footballers, discoverers etc, this is a place definitely worth a visit. You can walk around the dome (terrifying) and there are great views from the roof top. A must see.

As you wind you way around the streets and alleyways of the Alfama district, the striking white dome of the Panteao flits in and out of view. When you reach it, you can really appreciate its majesty. The facade is a study in symmetry and elegant design, capped off with the impressive dome. We went there on a Monday when it was closed so didn't get to see inside. Bit of a shame, but well worth seeing from the outside anyway.…
