Construction began in 1934 after a visit to Brazil by the Cardinal-Patriarch of Lisbon, who was reportedly impressed by the imposing image of Christ the Redeemer on Rio de Janeiro. At 110 meters high, the Cristo-Rei Sanctuary became a historical reference in spirituality during the first half of the 20th century. Currently, the monument is a place of prayer and a beautiful viewpoint over the capital. There are those who say that the statue was built in fulfillment of a vow formulated by the Portuguese Episcopate that asked "to God that Portugal did not participate in the Second World War". The Cardinal affirms, before the crowd, that this monument will forever signify the gratitude of the Portuguese people for the peace that had been offered to them. This monument, is one of the biggest and iconic symbols that enhance and decorate the metropolis.

The construction of the Portuguese empire required that the entrance to the Tagus be properly protected and ensure a military rhetoric translated into an effective and dissuasive defense system. Its grandeur and importance should have been enough to send a clear signal to the other European powers and their fleets that the river was protected and under control. In this way, under the direction of King D. João II, the defense of the mouth of the Tagus river was organised. The system conceived at the time was intended to ensure coverage of the Tagus bar by artillery fire, which represented a significant technological advance. The place chosen for the building of the main defense of the bar, to the north and south, would have to be located at the precise point where the Tagus is narrowest. Where we are going to make a drink tasting.

Natural sources, although abundant especially in the oldest part of Lisbon, were not enough to provide water for the entire population. Concerns about the city's hygiene were growing and, in the reign of King João V, the situation was close to collapse. The population flocked to the old fountains, where disputes continued, sometimes with great violence. The cost of obtaining water, often referred to by foreigners who visited Lisbon, was enormous and the water carriers reached extremes of speculation. In 1731, King D. João V. ordered the construction of the Águas Livres Aqueduct. With the aim of bringing water from Sintra to the Mãe d'Água Reservoir, which stored and distributed it to all the fountains and fountains in the city. Just passing.
