The Pantheon of the Patriarchs of Lisbon (Portuguese: Panteão dos Patriarcas de Lisboa), also known simply as the Pantheon of the Patriarchs, is the final resting place of the majority of the Cardinal-Patriarchs of Lisbon. It is located in the Monastery of São Vicente de Fora in the Alfama district of Lisbon, Portugal. The room is a simple chapel, mostly unadorned save for a stone altar. Even though it was planned since the 19th century, it was only built in the 1950s, and it is mostly unadorned save for a plain stone altar.
