The stained glass window th<strong>at</strong> appears in the porthole of the chorus is a<br />

contribution from various neighbors channeled by the Club Cultural <strong>Santa</strong><br />

It was placed in 1996.<br />

For many years the church of Ciadoncha did not have a tower. The original tower<br />

was destroyed in 1755, possibly as a consequence of the earthquake th<strong>at</strong> destroyed<br />

Lisboa. The exterior of the church has endured several transform<strong>at</strong>ions since then. At<br />

first the church, without a tower where the apse is, emphasized l<strong>at</strong>e Romanesque style,<br />

starts of the Gothic.<br />
