Estrela, Administrative district in western Lisbon, Portugal

The parish spans 4.60 square kilometers along the Tagus River, featuring wide streets and residential neighborhoods with neoclassical buildings.

The establishment of Estrela occurred during Lisbon's 2012 reorganization through the merger of three former parishes: Lapa, Prazeres, and Santos-o-Velho.

The Jardim da Estrela public garden provides green spaces where residents gather for outdoor activities and community events throughout the year.

The district maintains several community centers, educational facilities, and public services, serving a population of 20,267 residents as of 2021.

The Basilica of the Heart of Jesus stands at the highest point of the district with a large dome visible from multiple locations in Lisbon.
