The bell tower of the Church of Santa Cruz do Castelo, one of the highest viewpoints in
the old Lisbon, was rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake and offers one of the best views
over the capital and the Tagus River. But, for several years, this space was closed and
forgotten, having suffered an accelerated process of degradation, both in terms of its
building and its artistic contents. As a result of the initiative of Father Edgar Clara and
Signinum, the cultural heritage management company responsible for the project at the
time - the tourist activity is currently managed by Wonderful Day, a company in the
DASigninum group - on 7th June 2018 the doors of the Castelo Church Tower viewpoint
were once again opened, from where you can reach mythical places such as São Vicente
de Fora, Alfama, the Graça Church and its terrace, Senhora do Monte and the Vasco da
Gama bridge. The entrance is through the old mortuary chapel, where you'll find the
ticket office and a shop selling souvenirs and convent sweets. With your visit, you are
contributing to the safeguarding and valorisation of this heritage.
