Lisbon Cathedral (Sé de Lisboa) is the city's oldest and most historic church, a robust Romanesque structure that has survived earthquakes and sieges. Visitors enter through a grand rose window and explore the atmospheric interior, then descend to the Gothic cloisters where archaeological excavations reveal Roman, Moorish, and medieval layers. The treasury houses sacred vessels, vestments, and the reliquary of St. Vincent, patron saint of Lisbon.
