Small church inseparable from the pillory, on the heights of Belém, with a chapel of Italian style.
On the heights of Belém, the history of this small church is inseparable from the pillory hidden behind the Antiga Confeitaria de Belém. King Dom Jose I escaped an attack and had this chapel built in the Italian style. Meanwhile, Minister Carvalho was looking for the culprits. The Távora family was suspected. The marquise was beheaded, her husband and sons tortured and the property confiscated. This tragic episode still tarnishes the memory of a certain... Marquês de Pombal, whose tomb you can see right here!
