Description

In Lisbon, Portugal, the Estrela Basilica is a basilica and monastery. It was designed by Queen Maria I in the late 1700s to fulfill a vow after she gave birth to a son. The basilica is adorned with statues of saints with an immense white rococo dome and twin bell towers. Sculptor Joaquim Machado de Castro built the Christmas manger and it is made of cork and terra cotta.
