Echoes of Old Lisbon: An Odyssey Through Santa Maria Maior

Audio guide15 stops

A thousand years ago, thunder shook the stones of Lisbon Cathedral and secrets echoed through hidden alleyways where empires rose and fell. Beneath the sunlit arches and tiled facades, scandals and revolts left invisible marks. This self-guided audio tour unlocks a trove of stories as you wander at your own pace. Trace whispered histories from Praça do Comércio to the dizzying heights of the Santa Justa Lift. Peel back layers that most visitors walk straight past. Why did fire sweep through Praça do Comércio, reshaping Lisbon’s fate in one terrifying hour? Who vanished within the shadows beneath Lisbon Cathedral and why does no one speak their name today? What curious obsession led a turn-of-the-century dreamer to build a lift straight into the sky? Stride through legends, upheaval, and intrigue with each step. Feel the pulse of forgotten rebellions guiding your journey. Ready to find what still lingers behind every stone? Press play and dive into Lisbon’s living mysteries.
