Miradouro da Senhora do Monte is located in the parish of São Vicente (Graça), in Lisbon.
The viewpoint is located in front of the Chapel of Nossa Senhora do Monte. From it you can see, to the south, the Sea of Palha, the Castle of São Jorge, part of downtown Lisbon and the estuary of the Tagus River, to the west, from Bairro Alto to Parque Florestal de Monsanto and, to the north , the valley of Avenida Almirante Reis.
History
Beside this viewpoint is the small and ancient Chapel of Nossa Senhora do Monte (classified as a Public Interest Property), founded in 1147 and dedicated to São Gens, the bishop who, according to tradition, was martyred here. It was on this old Mount of São Gens that D. Afonso Henriques set up camp for the conquest of the city.
The viewpoint is located in the churchyard of the small chapel and was renovated twice in the 20th century. As it is located at the highest point of Bairro da Graça, it is one of the places with the best panoramic views of the city, especially over Mouraria and São Jorge Castle.
