Church of Saint Anthony of Lisbon

Very lovely church whilst also being extremely well preserved. Nice area with some nice bars to get drinks aswell. Definitely worth the visit.

Another example of a really well-preserved church in Lisbon. There's also a back room with a small shop. If you continue past the shop inside the church, there's some steps going down to a small shrine downstairs. Be aware that if you are there on the weekend, there is a service going on; so try not to disturb the regular congregation attending.

A must visit place for any Catholic. Though it has such importance the prayer service inside is very calm. Great place to pray and introspect.
There is a souvenir shop inside as well.

Saint Anthony birthplace, a miracle worker in the catholic church. This place is a must visit for every christian. The church is in barock style with a small souvenir shop inside.

This is the birthplace of Saint Anthony de Padua. We were blessed to be able to attend mass and also visit the actual birthplace below the church. A must visit for Catholics when in Lisbon.

Great example of architecture with a dome as well as being the birthplace of Saint Anthony. Much better to step into than the Cathedral next to it.

Beautiful church built on the site of St. Anthony's place of birth (his family house). Inside the church, you can go to the basement and visit his birthplace. Within the church, you have a museum with religious objects and also an exhibition of St. Anthony's figures. One of the most important church to visit while in the city.

It’s the birth place of Saint Anthony! It is also where relic is being kept here for pilgrims to witness.

Don’t forget to get the special St. Anthony’s rosary beads at the souvenir store if you want to conduct a 13-day Novena to St Anthony…

psst, fun fact: my local tour guide told us that St Antonio is also a match maker…….

Such a beautiful church and such a nice parish, with very welcoming people and a very nice mass and homily. I enjoyed visiting St. Anthony's birthplace and learning about the history of his origin. The parishioners are incredibly nice and the altar and religious art are breathtaking in every sense. It is located in a lively area in the Alfama neighborhood with easy access to cable cars, shops and restaurants. A must see.

This patron Saint has a special significance in our family, as we were married and both our kids baptized in his Church in our hometown Belgrade, Serbia.
Therefore, every time I'm in Lisbon (and this was my third time) I pay my respects here visiting this beautiful Baroque Church.
Lisbon's San Antonio is set at the foot of Alfama oldest part of town, just steps before the oldest Se Cathedral.
It's a classic Baroque 18c Church (rebuilt after the 1755 earthquake, the original dates back to 15c) on the place where St. Anthony was born in 1195, marked with the crypt beneath the Church ground level. Beside is a plaque of Pope John Paul II visit.

I visited the church in the St Antonio's day. Important festive day for Portugueses, but specially for Lisbon's people.

Beautiful church built over the birthplace of St. Anthony of Padua (also known as St. Anthony of Lisbon). Parts of the house are preserved underneath the church, and you can visit them through the crypt (free of charge). I went for a weekday evening Mass and after the service was invited (in English) to go see the altar built over the spot where it is believed St. Anthony was born. There is a mural done in the azulejo style of Pope John Paul II's visit to this site that you can see while walking through the crypt. There is also a gift shop adjacent to the sacristy, with a wide selection of religious articles and literature in various languages. In addition to all this, the relica of St. Justina of Antioch (4th century martyr) are housed in this church. If you are in Lisbon even only for a little while, would highly recommend coming to see this special spot of Christian history.

Beautiful church just behind the Lisbon cathedral. It gives a calming effect on your soul.
Worth checking out

Tip: If you go on a Sunday be aware that the Church has Mess Every hour. So you can get inside the church only when the ness have ended.
Another tip: if you want to buy San Antonio real responsory’s (like his specific rosary 📿 prayer set) buy in inside the church. The little store is inside the church ⛪ towards San Antonio Cripta. Be aware they only open this little shop also during the time there is no mess.
Bring only cash because the little San Antonio Church shop they don’t take credit cards.

A beautiful church, the birthplace of St. Anthony, in the Alfama district. No entrance fee. Really lovely experience. Very clean toilets. A lovely shop, not expensive.

From the outside, the church looks small, but inside it is very beautiful.

I loved the calmness. I could just sit there hours prayering and meditating. View is spectacular from the top.

I'm giving this church a rating of five stars as St. Anthony was the favorite saint of my mother-in-law, may she rest in peace. Bless her, we got to visit the birthplace of her benefactor and overseer. You can go and find your own reason to have visited. Amore, espiritu santu.

Very beautiful and nice church dedicated to Santo Antonio who was born in Lisbon. The church has a great history as the location is known to be the place of birth of Saint Anthony. The entrance is free and you can visit the exact place where he was born.

Beautiful church with the birth place of St Antonio. Pick a day there is no boat load of tourists though as it will be much nicer.
