Fully Furnished 2-Bedroom Apartment for Rent

The Parish of Santo António results from the merger of three Lisbon parishes: S. José, Coração de Jesus and São Mamede. Bearing a name in honor of Lisbon’s patron saint, the parish seeks to preserve the past and create new stories in the capital; to integrate all people and businesses into community life; to value and preserve emblematic places; and also to be an example of innovation, attracting young people and entrepreneurs to this place in the very heart of Lisbon. The Barata Salgueiro Quarter, the Camões Quarter (inaugurated in 1880 on the three-hundredth anniversary of the death of the poet Luís de Camões), the Diário de Notícias building, the Church of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and the “Franjinhas” Building reveal the area’s urban dynamism.

The parish includes the renowned Avenida da Liberdade, inaugurated at the end of the 19th century; the “Public Promenade” was created in the likeness of the great European boulevards of the time. A prestigious area of the city where, on both the left and right sides, we find large stately mansions that represented the area’s wealth and excellence. Until the late 20th century, this area favored the establishment of large service companies, but since the early 2000s there has been increasing settlement of major international brands and property rehabilitation geared toward the luxury residential market.
