PORTUGAL: Statue Christ the King - viewpoint Almada /Lisbon
The Sanctuary of Christ the King (Portuguese: Santuário de Cristo Rei) is a Catholic monument and shrine dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ overlooking the city of Lisbon situated in the city of Almada, Portugal.
It was inspired by the Christ the Redeemer statue of Rio de Janeiro, in Brazil, after the Cardinal Patriarch of Lisbon visited that monument.
The project was inaugurated on 17 May 1959, while Portugal was ruled by António de Oliveira Salazar who gave his final permission for the project. The giant statue in cement was erected to express gratitude that the Portuguese were spared the horrors and destruction of World War II.
In 1941 the land which was used to construct the monument was acquired. The construction project began in 1949 and took ten years to complete. But it was only in 1952 that the first construction started.
The first inauguration of the complex officially was on 17 May 1959. On the 25th anniversary of the Shrine in 1984, the Chapel of Our Lady of Peace was inaugurated. A new plan was approved to recondition the grounds of the Shrine and also to build a Sanctuary, which included a rectory, a chapel, administration and meeting halls and exhibition galleries.
In order to support pilgrimage to the site, in June 2004 new spaces in the Sanctuary building were inaugurated, including a dining room for 150 people and two segregated dormitories. This was followed on 17 May 2005, with the inauguration of a 150-person dining area and 80-person meeting hall, in addition to two segregated dormitories, dining room and kitchen.
Improvements to the monument and sanctuary of Christ the King began in 2006. By 17 May of that year, the Chapel of Our Lady of Peace was inaugurated. In the following year (17 May 2007), the Pope John XXIII hall was opened, containing eight oil paintings.
________________________
The monument was erected on an isolated clifftop 133 m above the sea, overlooking the Tagus River left bank.
It is the highest point in Almada, on a plateau dominated by the 25 de Abril Bridge, and close to the Estação Elevatória e Reservatório do Pragal.
It is accessible from Lisbon by car (over the 25 de Abril Bridge east of the crossing), by train through station in Pragal and by ferry over the Tagus, through the port of Cacilhas in Almada.
The monument consists of a trapezoidal pedestal of 82 metres (269 ft) height, formed by four arches and a flat platform, supporting the 28 metres (92 ft) image of Christ.
Its base was designed by architect António Lino in the form of a gate, while the statue of Christ the King was designed by sculptor Francisco Franco de Sousa.
The four arches of the pedestal are oriented in the directions of the compass rose. The figure of Christ, comparable to the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, forms a cross, with its arms extended out facing the city of Lisbon, as if to embrace the city. Due to issues of security and safety, the monument was sufficiently distanced from the cliffs on which it predominates.
At the base of the statue is the observation deck, at 82 metres (269 ft), which enables panoramic views of the city of Lisbon, the Tagus River and the 25 de Abril Bridge.
Under the statue, occupying a fifth of the pedestal's height, is the Chapel of Our Lady of Peace (Nossa Senhora da Paz) with an entrance from the northern facade. This space is distinctly different with its masonry stone, the northern facade surmounted by cross and the other facades containing narrow doors.
Inside two of the pillars is an elevator system with access to the terrace; the statue is 79.30 metres high, and overlooks the Tagus (192 metres above the river).
To the south of the monument is the Sanctuary building, comprising a rectangular body of three wings, with facades covered with masonry brick.

Elections mark Portugal as political curiosity
(4 Oct 2019) No loud populists, no surging far-right groups, a liberal and migrant-welcoming Socialist Party tipped for a resounding win - Portugal's general election this weekend makes the country look like Europe's odd man out.
Across the European Union, radical new parties are reshaping the political landscape while Europe's Socialist parties have lost ground in recent years.
Deep differences over how to handle surging numbers of migrants, especially, have caused friction.
In Portugal, however, political tradition is still what it used to be.
The two mainstream parties are expected to garner most votes in Sunday's ballot, with the center-left Socialist Party showing an opinion poll lead of at least 7 percentage points over the centre-right Social Democratic Party.
There is a broad consensus, at the same time, that migrants are indispensable - to fill unskilled jobs and help offset a demographic time bomb as a low birth rate depletes the national population. That has denied oxygen to nationalist parties, which have remained tiny and on the political fringe.
Immigration is not even an election issue. That may be because the European' Union's migrant surge has not tested Portugal's patience as it doesn't lie on the geographic routes from Africa and the Middle East, and as one of western Europe's financially poorest countries its appeal to migrants is muted.
If migration reached a similar scale in Portugal as it has in countries like Italy and Greece, the Portuguese could swiftly change their attitude, says Antonio Costa Pinto, a professor at Lisbon University's Social Sciences Institute. For now, though, the outlook is calm. Costa Pinto sees three reasons for Portugal's lack of friction with migrants.
Besides the fact that there are few of them on Portuguese streets, many are Portuguese-speaking migrants from Brazil and the country's five former colonies in Africa, and that eases their integration.
Also, over the last 50 years the Portuguese have emigrated in droves, making them sensitive to how migrants are treated.
Serenah Sabat, a 26-year-old Palestinian asylum-seeker from Bethlehem, doesn't need to be told that.
She is the co-manager of Mezze, a restaurant at Lisbon's Arroios market serving Middle Eastern dishes, where 16 refugees work, most of them from Syria.
Sabat says she is astonished by the welcome she has received over the past three years, comparing it favourably to her experiences in Belgium over the previous three years.
That need is not lost on Antonio Costa, the Socialist prime minister for the last four years who is seeking re-election.
Costa says one of his first legislative proposals if re-elected will be to make immigration easier, scrapping a quota system enacted by a previous Social Democrat government that linked migrant entries to labour market requirements.
Social Democrat leader Rui Rio is more cautious. He insists on finding a balance between an open-door policy and the country's needs.
The underlying problem is Portugal's low birth rate, which threatens the financing of the welfare system as the population ages. At current fertility rates Portugal's population will decline from 10.3 million this year to 6.6 million in 2100, the EU predicts. Migration can offset this, which the Socialists say they will make a policy priority.
Costa's embrace of migrants hasn't hurt his re-election chances, judging by the polls.
