Notre-Dame's construction, in what was at the time the city of ByTown, began in 1841, its main structure completed in 1846 and its entire structure completed in 1858 following the addition of its two bell towers.

Based on the plans drawn up by local builder Antoine Robillard and Father John Francis Cannon, it was to have a Neo-Classical design. However, in 1844, after the lower section was completed, the Oblate Fathers (OMI) assumed stewardship of the parish and Father Pierre-Adrien Telmon was sent from France to finish the construction. Father Telmon decided to redesign the church into a Neo-Gothic structure, a style which was growing in popularity. This resulted in the lower features, such as the main entrance, being Neo-Classical, while the upper portions of the structure are Neo-Gothic.

Its history, with its multi-phased work and stewardship, is far too comprehensive to summarize here. If one is interested, one can peruse its rich history at:

The Santa Justa Lift is a remarkable masterpiece designed by Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard, a Portuguese engineer student of Gustave Eiffel.
It was opened in 1902, when it was steam powered, then in 1907 it became electrical and was the only lift in Lisbon in public service. The lift makes the connection between the Baixa (downtown) and Largo do Carmo. It is made entirely of cast iron, and embellished with filigree, the lifts within the tower go up to 45 meters and carry 25 persons in each cabin of which there are two. In a romantic neogothic design, this lift is really something that you cannot afford to miss when you visit Lisbon!!

At the top you will be delighted by the unique view over the city of Lisbon and relax at a beautiful esplanada. Do not forget to visit Carmo Convent (see photograph here www.flickr.com/photos/matilde/26339227/)

P.S. Beware of pickpockets in large crowds, while you are looking up :) You should also know that with the Lisboa card, you get to ride it for free!

O elevador de Santa Justa é um dos ex-libris da Cidade de Lisboa . O ascensor fez, até 1996, a ligação entre a Rua do Ouro e o Largo do Carmo através de um passadiço de 25 metros assente num pilar de betão e no último piso do edifício Leonel, o prédio 63 a 75 da Rua do Carmo.

Projectado pelo engenheiro portuense Raoul Mesnier du Ponsard, um aprendiz de Gustavo Eifel, este elevador foi o último dos nove ascensores de Lisboa a ser construído e um dos quatro que ainda estão em funcionamento - Lavra, Glória e Bica. O vapor, a fonte de tracção original, foi substituído pela electricidade em 1907, depois de o ascensor ter sido arrendado à Carris, que acabou por comprá-lo.

Foi classificado como monumento nacional em 1997 e desde há muito que é uma referência no circuito turístico lisboeta.
