Misericórdia (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˌmizɨɾiˈkɔɾðjɐ]) is a freguesia (civil parish) and district of Lisbon, the capital of Portugal.
Located in the historic center of Lisbon, Misericórdia is to the east of Estrela, west of Santa Maria Maior, and south of Santo António.
It is home to numerous famous neighborhoods, including Bairro Alto, Príncipe Real, and parts of Chiado.
