History
[
edit
]
The Magdalene Church that currently exists is the result of several reconstructions. The original structure was erected in 1150 or 1164, by order of D. Afonso Henriques. In 1363, a fire completely destroyed the church, and
Ferdinand I of Portugal
had it rebuilt. In 1600 the church was partially destroyed by a cyclone. In 1755 the church was demolished by the
1755 Lisbon earthquake
. In 1783 Queen
Maria I of Portugal
had to rebuild the church again. In 1833, the church underwent some changes.
The church portal, a
Manueline
trefoil arch
that was salvaged intact following the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, was classified as a
National Monument
in 1910.
