Igreja de São Sebastião da Pedreira, Religious monument in Avenidas Novas, Lisbon, Portugal.

The exterior structure features two bell towers and a triangular pediment, with stone elements framing the main portal entrance.

The church construction dates from 1652 during King João IV's reign and remained standing through the devastating 1755 Lisbon earthquake.

Interior decorations include Portuguese tiles depicting Saint Sebastian's life, along with paintings by artists Jerónimo da Silva and Cirilo Volkmar Machado.

Located at Rua Tomás Ribeiro 64 in Lisbon, visitors can enter the church through lateral staircases that compensate for the churchyard level.

The church houses the tomb of João Bermudes, who held the position of Patriarch of Alexandria and Ethiopia until his death in 1570.
