About Santa Apolonia Station
Santa Apolonia Station started operating in 1873 to connect Portugal’s capital to neighboring Spain. The Lisbon terminus also served as a launching pad for European travelers to skip across the Atlantic towards the United States. It’s the oldest station in Lisbon, and the national rail service has coordinated international routes to cities like Madrid and Paris for over a century.
The station rests along the Tagus River and provides frequent connections to other areas of Lisbon. The metro is a reliable option for most tourists, but there are bus and taxi services just outside the station. Tourists and locals needing to reach other Portuguese destinations such as Coimbra, Porto, and Braga have several intercity train routes available from Santa Apolonia.
Santa Apolonia is noted for its pastel blue façade and designed in Neoclassical style. The building’s U-shaped frame extends around the platforms, and the complex’s width is only 25 meters due to its location between the river and Alfama hills. With only eight platforms, it’s easily navigable for tourists arriving here for the first time.
The station has a considerable range of shops, but travelers can walk to the adjacent Alfama district for more options. Grab a snack, enjoy some retail therapy, or wake up with a fresh coffee in the historic district before continuing your day in Portugal’s charming capital.

Earthquakes in the 14th, 16th, and 18th centuries left a devastating impact on the church, and the catastrophes resulted in a blend of architectural styles to reconstruct it. Se Cathedral was built in the typical Romanesque style of the Middle ages, but now includes elements of Gothic and Baroque.
Walk inside to find medieval statues, well-preserved cloisters, and medieval Gothic tombs. A ticket is required to visit the cloisters, but the excavated ruins reveal striking images of the former mosque that stood here long ago.
