Chapel of the Souls of Santa Catarina

Highlight • Religious Site

Cape of Souls
Address: Rua de Santa Catarina 428, 4000-444, Porto
How to get:
Metro: Bolhão station (line D)
We found the Capela das Almas (Chapel of Souls) walking around the Mercado do Bolhao, very close to the busy Rua Santa Catarina. It is one of the most special churches in Porto, unmistakable for its striking white and blue tile façade and often forgotten on the most touristic routes. The Capela das Almas was built during the 18th century and is neoclassical in style.
However, the tile decoration so characteristic of this church, although it was done in the typical style of the 18th century (the period of maximum splendor of the Portuguese tile), was incorporated later, at the beginning of the 20th century, specifically in 1929.
