Church of São Roque
The Church of São Roque – Igreja de São Roque – is one of the earliest Jesuits churches, and one of the few to escape the 1755 earthquake with less damage. It was handed over to the Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Lisboa shortly afterward, a charitable organization who promptly began reconstruction of the damaged areas.
The most famous of these is the chapel of St. John the Baptist from the 18th century. This chapel is said to be the most expensive one of its time, designed by Nicola Salvi and Luigi Vanvitelli and constructed in Rome it was later disassembled and shipped to Lisbon.
