Lisbon City Hall, Neoclassical town hall in Santa Maria Maior, Portugal

The Lisbon City Hall displays a monumental facade with a central balcony, large pediment, and sculptures crafted by Calmels alongside four circular windows.

After a devastating fire destroyed the original structure in 1863, architect Domingos Parente da Silva designed this new building, completed between 1865 and 1880.

The interior staircase, designed by José Luís Monteiro, features paintings by Portuguese artists Pereira Cão, Columbano Bordalo Pinheiro, and José Malhoa.

Located in Praça do Município, the building serves as the seat of municipal government and remains accessible to visitors interested in its architecture.

The building survived a fire in 1996 that damaged its upper floors, leading to restoration work that aligned with the original architectural vision.
