Summary

Description The National Pantheon of Portugal started its life as the Santa Engrácia Church. Designed around 1680 by João Antunes (1642-1712), one of the most important baroque architects in Portugal, its construction took almost three centuries to complete, making Santa Engrácia synonymous with any interminable project. At least, it has the merit of having survived the 1775 earthquake, which several of Antunes' other projects didn't. The church was converted into a National Pantheon in 1966. Amália Rodrigues, the legendary fado singer, is buried there.
