Misericórdia, Civil parish in central Lisbon, Portugal
Misericórdia covers 2.19 square kilometers in Lisbon's center, encompassing Bairro Alto, Príncipe Real, and sections of the Chiado neighborhood.
The district emerged from the 2012 Administrative Reform of Lisbon through the consolidation of multiple parishes including Mercês, Santa Catarina, and Encarnação.
The area contains the São Roque Church complex, which became the headquarters of Lisbon's charitable institution following the expulsion of Jesuits in 1768.
The district maintains a population of 13,044 residents and features several observation points offering views across Lisbon's central districts.
The Miradouro de São Pedro de Alcântara within Misericórdia presents a two-level garden structure with panoramic views of São Jorge Castle.
