Igreja de Santa Catarina

Bairro Alto, Chiado & Cais do Sodré


Igreja de Santa Catarina is a gilded baroque masterpiece, originally part of a convent built in 1647. Pay particular attention to the stucco rococo ceiling, the impressive gilded wooden organ and the altar, flush with Flemish-forged sculptures of St Catherine, St Paul and St Anthony.
