Santa Clara (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsɐ̃tɐ ˈklaɾɐ]) is a freguesia (civil parish) and typical quarter of Lisbon, the capital city of Portugal. Located in northern Lisbon, Santa Clara is north of Lumiar, west of Olivais, and directly south of Lisbon's border with Odivelas and Loures. The population in 2021 was 23,645.[1][2]

History

Antiquity (up to 711 CE)

Cruzeiro in Santa Clara

Since prehistoric times, the territory now known as Santa Clara parish has been inhabited by humans, leaving behind a trail of archaeological evidence dating from the Paleolithic to the Chalcolithic era. It is even suggested that the Ameixoeira Fort stands on the remains of a Chalcolithic settlement, and Celtic tombs were discovered in the vicinity.[3][4]

Furthermore, Roman influence is substantiated by the discovery of an altar or stele, with a likely 3rd-century inscription, unearthed in 1720 in the Várzea de Santa Suzana.[5][6]

Muslim rule (711 CE - 1147 CE)

During the Muslim rule of the Iberian Peninsula between the 8th and 12th centuries, the occupation intensified with the consolidation of small homesteads and the development of orchards and gardens.

From the Muslim period, some remnants endure, such as the "covas" (caves), underground granaries or silos, along with various legendary reminiscences. These include the tale of the Moorish figure Mixo or Amixo founding the settlement, and the account of the battle fought between Moors and Christians. Additionally, there is the story of how the Christians discovered the image of Our Lady concealed in a hidden nook.[7][8][9][10]

At the time of the conquest of Lisbon, the number of local residents was already significant, and they were joined by many Moors who were either expelled from the city or left voluntarily. Christians and Muslims eventually merged in a short time, erasing religious and cultural differences.[11][12]

Kingdom of Portugal and incorporation into Lisbon (1147 - 1885)

Nossa Senhora da Encarnação church

On July 24, 1385, D. João I granted perpetual rights and inheritance of vineyards and their accompanying lands, located beyond the boundaries of Lisbon, to "Afom priz da charneca caualeiro nosso uasallo." These vineyards were specifically situated "aallem d aRoyos caminho da charneca," and they were known to be associated with Lisbon city's vineyard.[13][14]


During the 15th century, Santa Clara (Ameixoeira) gained some prominence and housed a hospice for the destitute and pilgrims. On June 22, 1476, following a prolonged dispute with the University of Lisbon, the parish of Charneca de Sacavém was officially delimited for the first time, thereby ending its annexation to that parish.[15] In 1514 the Quinta of Our Lady of Carmo was built.[16]

As the 16th century began, Ameixoeira sought to become an independent parish, separating from Lumiar, with which it had been affiliated since 1266. This process was eventually completed on October 16, 1541, with the establishment of the parish, dedicated to Our Lady of the Incarnation. Notably, the oldest parish registry in the municipality of Lisbon dates back to 1540, a time when the parish was not fully disentangled from Lumiar.[17][18][19]

In 1585 the parish of Charneca do Lumiar was created, it would later (2012) merge with Ameixoeira originating today's Santa Clara.

In 1660, the Fountain of Torrinha, along with its water source, was constructed. From 1664 to 1681, significant renovations were undertaken in the church, including the addition of the chancel, and the ceiling panels were adorned with paintings by Bento Coelho da Silveira. In 1688, while serving as the judge of the Confraternity of Our Lady of the Incarnation of Ameixoeira, the magistrate Gonçalo Mendes de Brito financed the installation of tiles in the nave, and he personally funded the construction of the main altarpiece.[16] The XVI Century saw also the establishment of Igreja de São Bartolomeu (Saint Bartholomew church).[20]

The devastating earthquake of 1755 wrought substantial destruction, affecting both the church and the residential and agricultural properties in the parish.

Throughout the 19th century, Ameixoeira seems to have been a favored locale for duels of honor among the citizens of Lisbon, and it also saw the construction of the Ameixoeira Fort.[21][22]

In 1852, the parishes of Charneca and Ameixoeira were incorporated into the newly established municipality of Olivais. Thirty-three years later, in 1885, it once again became part of the municipality of Lisbon. Under the old administrative division, it was part of the province of Estremadura.

Urbanization and new boundaries (1885-2012)

The majority of the several zones in which the freguesia is divided, namely Quinta da Torrinha, Desvío, Galinheiras, Alto do chapeleiro, Quinta das lavadeiras , Quinta das Mouriscas and the new zones Alta de Lisboa and Quinta do Grafanil date from the second half of the XX century.[23]

Aerial orthography from 1995 centered on Quinta da Musgueira, showing the extent of the Musgueira North and South neighborhoods

In the 20th century, Ameixoeira parish faced a period of decline, with its historic infrastructure deteriorating. To address this, social housing projects were established to relocate residents from nearby shantytowns, including Charneca, Cruz Vermelha, Vale do Forno, Odivelas, Quinta do Louro, Musgueira Sul, Musgueira Norte and Galinheiras. These initiatives, centered in the Galinheiras area, also included subsidized housing for young people. New developments like Alta de Lisboa transformed the traditionally rural and peaceful character of the parish, leading to it being considered a problematic area. It was even part of the European LUDA project, which aimed to identify and solve challenges in distressed urban areas.[24][25][26][27][28][29]

On the other hand, before the 1959 administrative reform of Lisbon, the Charneca parish covered a larger area, extending south and east. However, after the reform, the eastern region was reassigned to the Santa Maria dos Olivais parish due to its integration into the Lisbon Airport expansion, while the southern area was divided among the Lumiar parish and the newly created Alvalade and São João de Brito parishes. The territory of the parish is adjacent to one of the runways of Lisbon Airport.

Since the 1960s, the territory of the parish is crossed by the A1 highway and in 1978 the first campus of Instituto Superior de Gestão (ISG) was inaugurated in the former parish of Ameixoeira (now part of Santa Clara).[30]

In 1993 the Portuguese gothic metal band Moonspell - formed in 1992 - performed their first show in the said parish. They quickly became the most recognizable metal band from Portugal and a key figure in gothic metal.[31]

In 1993 a major program for the eradication of shantytowns - who had remarkably grown following the influx of refugees from African colonies in the late 1970s and early 1980s, began.[32][33][34] This program was called Programa Especial de Realojamento (PER) or, in English "Special Rehousing Program", aimed to relocate residents of slums in the 28 municipalities of the metropolitan areas of Lisbon and Porto, being the largest public housing promotion program in Portugal since the 25th of April. The relocation program was highly beneficial for Lisbon: in 1993 there were still 37,300 people living in shantytowns in the capital city alone and around 130,000 the whole country (1.3% of the population).[35][36][37][38][39][40] Santa Clara was amongst the freguesias more affected by the PER program and, by 2007, thousands of people who previously lived in precarious dwellings had been relocated to more suitable ones.[41] In particular, in Santa Clara parish alone, around 8,415 people now live in a house built during the PER years, or around 35.6% of the population.[41][42]

Park in Santa Clara

In 1997 the "Alta de Lisboa Centro" neighbourhood was built. Housing around 5,300 people in 84 buildings and almost 2,000 apartments, it is one of the largest public housing projects ever built in Portugal. It was built where 3 large slums - namely Musgueira Norte, Musgueira Sul e Quinta Grande - existed.[39][41]In the same year, the 1st edition of the work Ameixoeira, Um Núcleo Histórico (monograph and other articles) was published . A detailed and rigorous monograph of the parish by Eugénio do Espírito Santo, which awaits its 2nd edition, and which can be consulted in the Municipal Libraries and in the Parish of Ameixoeira.

Túnel do Grilo in 1998

In 1998 the Túnel do Grilo was opened.[43]

In 2003 the neighbourhoods of "Alto do Chapeleiro", "Quinta das lavandeiras" and "Bairro da Ameixoeira" were completed: they currently house more than 3,100 people in 110 buildings and more than 1,000 apartments. They were built were once stood the slums of Galinheiras, Quinta do Louro, Pailepa, Vale do Forno, Calvanas, Alto dos Moinhos.[41]

In 2006 Parque Oeste, a park with an area of 13 hectares, was inaugurated. It has a privileged location, in a valley area, it performs a fundamental ecological function, through a retention basin that allows the use of rainwater to feed water courses, water the large lawns and sustainably maintain all existing vegetation in the area. park, a clear example of rational use of water.[44] In the same year, the Ameixoeira Fort - reconstructed in 1950 and serving as a warehouse up to 1989 - was assigned to the Portuguese Intelligence Services.[45][46]

Infrastructure development (2012 - present)

The freguesia was created with the 2012 Administrative Reform of Lisbon, merging the former Charneca and Ameixoeira parishes.[47]

In 2017 a new municipal firefighters' command was opened, aiming at serving almost 75,000 inhabitants in northern Lisbon.[48]

In 2020 Alta retail park - a project for a commercial area worth 35 million € and covering a surface of 22,000 square meters - was inaugurated, contributing to the revitalization of the area.[49][50][51] Also in 2020 the residential project "Altear" was conceived. Works have started and are planned to deliver 120,000 square meters divided between more than 500 luxury residential units, commercial areas and offices.[52][53][54][55]

In 2021 the cultural centre Quinta Alegre – Lugar de Cultura was established in the parish.[20] Amongst other institutions located here one can also find Saint Cecilia music academy (Academia de Música de Santa Cecília).

In 2023 a new section of Eixo Central (Central axis) was opened. In January 2023 Lisbon mayor Carlos Moedas announced also the construction of over 2,000 homes for affordable housing in the upcoming years.[56][57]

Santa Clara, once a neglected parish, is now being revitalised also thanks to the contribution of numerous cultural associations located there including Ameixoeira Community Development Center (Centro de Desenvolvimento Comunitário Ameixoeira), Pedro Arrupe Centre, Sindicato Nacional da Polícia (SINAPOL), Associação Lusofonia Cultura e Cidadania, CulturFACE - Cultural Association for Development and Centro de Desenvolvimento Comunitário da Charneca (CDC Charneca) amongst others.[58][59][60][61][62] The parish of Ameixoeira was one of the most deprived and critical in the city of Lisbon, its peripheral position contributed to this.

Over time, several studies, projects and plans have been carried out with a view to minimizing asymmetries between Ameixoeira and other Lisbon parishes, highlighting:

  • Parque Periférico
  • Coroa Norte
  • Plano de Acção Territorial (PAT)
  • Large Urban Distressed Áreas (LUDA)
  • Plano Regional de Ordenamento do Território da Área Metropolitana de Lisboa (PROTAML)

Historical resident population (before the 2012 Administrative Reform)

Santa Clara area before and after the 2012 Portuguese administrative reform

Between 1864 and 1878 Charneca and Ameixoeira belonged to the extinct municipality of Olivais. The limits were set by Law n.º 56/2012, of November 8.

In 1890, little after Charneca and Ameixoeira were incorporated into Lisbon, the total population stood at 1,479. In 1970, 80 years later, the population had grown to 13,911, recording a 940.6% growth rate.

The two former parishes experienced continued growth in 1980 Census (when many people coming from the former Portuguese colonies in Africa - the so called retornados - moved to Portugal) up to 2011.

From 1970 to 2011 the two parishes that now constitute Santa Clara gained 7,887 people, recording a 56.7% growth rate. In the 1980s and 1990s the population of the parish recorded a minor loss; this is probably due to plummeting fertility rates as well as the demolition of shanty towns such as Musgueira.[64][65]

The 2012 Portuguese administrative reform meant that the population rose further to 22,480 since minor portions of Olivais and Lumiar were incorporated into the newly formed parish. [66]

Current resident population (after the 2012 Administrative Reform)

In the 2021 Portuguese Census was recorded a sustained demographic growth. In particular, from 2011 to 2021 the parish gained 1,856 people, recording a growth of +8.5%.

Demographic statistics

  • Age

The last censuses show that the parish's population is ageing at a fast pace: in 2021 31.06% of the population was below 25 and, at the same time, almost a fifth (16.37%) of the residents was 65 or older.

  • Religion

Religion in Santa Clara (Census 2021)[70]

  Catholicism (68.58%)
  Protestantism (6.02%)
  Jehovah's Witnesses and Other Christian (2.68%)
  Orthodoxy (0.86%)
  Islam (1.15%)
  Hinduism (0.21%)
  Buddhism (0.19%)
  Judaism (0.02%)
  Other religions (0.68%)
  No religion (19.63%)

The parish is predominantly catholic and 78.13% of the population aged 15 or above are followers of a Christian or Jeovah's Witness denomination as of 2021.

Interestingly, around 19.63% of the population doesn't practice a religion and is thus non religious.[71]

The presence of minor religions such as Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism (2.24% of the population amongst the three) is probably due to an increasing community of people coming from India, Pakistan, Bangladesh or Nepal.

  • Immigration

In 2021, 8.65% of the population of the parish was constituted by foreigners. In particular, amongst women foreigners were 9.01% of the total. This means that in Santa Clara there are 2,045 resident foreigners, an increase from 2011, when there were 1,845 resident foreigners (8.21%). Since the foreign population increased by (correcting by new territorial area) 200 people from 2011 to 2021 and given that the total population of the parish increased by 1,165 units in the same timespan, it is noteworthy that the total population growth was due for more than half to the increase in the number of resident foreigners, thus not counting people who have acquired Portuguese nationality in the meantime.[72] The largest group of foreigners is constituted by PALOP countries' citizens (883 people or -20.1% since 2011), Brazilians (573 people or +85.44% since 2011), and people from the Indian Subcontinent, most notably Nepalis and Bangladeshis, totaling 92 people, or recording an increase of +104.44% since 2011.[73]

Dealing with the foreign-born population, 15.27% of the parish's population was born abroad as of 2021. The most common countries of birth were PALOP countries (2,274 people), Brazil (768 people) and the Indian Subcontinent (122 people). Interestingly, 2.74% of the parish's population were first-generation immigrants from the island country of São Tomé e Príncipe.[74] Of the Portuguese nationals born abroad, the most common countries of birth were PALOP countries (1,515 people) and Brazil (224 people), all countries having ancient historical ties with Portugal as well as a rooted migration history towards the country, and who are, thus, more likely to have acquired Portuguese citizenship along the years.[75]

Moreover, as of 2021 in the parish there were 2,273 people who have entered Portugal after 2010, constituting 9.61% of the population. Of those with recent migrant background, 13.77% were Portuguese nationals returning from a period of emigration abroad.[76]

Amongst the Portuguese, 3,753 had already lived abroad as of 2021 (17.38% of the Portuguese population). A plurality of those having lived in Angola and Mozambique (1,086 people) entered Portugal in the Seventies (525 people or 48.34%), following the independence of the two former colonies (so called retornados). Those coming from countries hosting large Portuguese emigrant communities such as France, Spain, Germany, Switzerland, Luxembourg or Belgium (579 people) have mostly entered Portugal after 1991 (74.27%), probably due to the development of the Portuguese economy since its accession to the EU. Interestingly, 52.58% of the Portuguese nationals having lived in the UK and residing in the parish, has left the UK after 2016, (date of the Brexit referendum).[77]

If the whole population (regardless of the nationality held) is taken into account, then 21.52% of the parish's population has already lived abroad for at least one year as of 2021, with PALOP countries, Brazil and EU countries being the most commonly cited countries of previous residence.[78]

Economy and Social conditions

Employement

In the parish of Santa Clara there are 1,382 residents who, as of 2021, were unemployed. Of these, 49.20% received a state-fund subsidy or pension (41.34% in Lisbon).[79] In 2021 the unemployment rate in the parish is considerably higher than the one recorded for Lisbon and for Portugal as a whole, standing at 13.08%. In the same year, Portugal as a whole had an unemployment rate of 8.13% that has progressively decreased to 6.1% in 2023. As the statistics dealing with unemployment at the parish level are available only every 10 years, the current (2023) unemployment rate in Santa Clara is unknown.[80][81] Amongst youth aged 15–24 the unemployment rate in 2021 in the parish stood at 30.77%, 64.72% higher than in the rest of the country.[82]

On the other hand, in 2021 9,182 residents were employed, of which 78.39% were employees and 18.82% were independent workers.[83] Below is the table showing the employment rate per age group. The low share of people aged 20–24 employed is due to the fact that many are still in education (e.g. university) while the low proportion of those in employment aged 60–64 is due to many being early pensioners.[84]

2021 Census data Age group
20-24 25-29 30-34 35-39 40-44 45-49 50-54 55-59 60-64
Share of people in employment 36.02% 62.11% 66.54% 72.22% 75.47% 74.03% 68.14% 62.97% 47.10%

Dealing with commuting, the residents of Santa Clara spent 26.34 minutes of daily commuting, 4 minutes more than the average inhabitant of Lisbon.[85]

Social conditions

Dealing with overcrowding in the parish's households, 19.99% of the population lives in accommodations where they have less than 15 m2 per capita (8.71% for Lisbon and 5.65% in Portugal as a whole), while 26.50% live in houses with more than 40 m2 per capita (39.64% for Lisbon and 46.84% in Portugal as a whole).[86] There are 3,253.3 dwellings per km2 (3,200.5 for Lisbon and 64.9 in Portugal as a whole).[87]

41.8% of the population lives in owned dwellings as of 2021; this is significantly lower than the values recorded both for Lisbon (50.3%) and for Portugal (70%).[88] The average height of a residential building in Santa Clara is 3.2 floors as of 2021[89] and the average area of a dwelling stands at 83.38 m2 (with the average in Lisbon-city 93.07 m2 being and in Portugal 112.45 m2).[90]

The average monthly rent value of leased dwellings recorded in 2021 stood at €242.04, 48.60% lower than the Lisbon average in the same year (€470.87).[91] It is nonetheless important to notice that the value of the rents is quite low because of many contracts stipulated decades ago, with 48.93% (25.34% in Lisbon) of the dwellers paying less than €150/month[92] because of the rent-freezing system that was adopted in Portugal in the late XX century, allowing that many people, now mostly elders, don't have to pay high rents.[93][94][95] Due to the housing crisis and inflation, in 2023 the average rent for new contracts (frozen contracts aren't concerned) stood in fact at almost €10/m2 in Santa Clara, meaning that for the average 83.38 m2 dwelling are necessary around €834/month.[96][97][98][99][100][101][102]

Dealing with housing prices, it is interesting to remark that if the median price per m2 stood at €1,518 for a house sold in early 2016, this value had risen to €2,097/m2 in early 2021 and to €2,597/m2 in 2023, experiencing a growth of +71.08% in just 7 years. In the same period the growth of house priced per m2 in Lisbon as a whole was +117.6%, from €1,875/m2 to €4,080/m2.[103]

Of the 1,675 residential buildings listed in the parish, 3.28% were built before 1919, 24.24% from 1919 to 1960, 40.42% from 1961 to 1990, 11.88% from 1991 to 2000 and 20.18% after 2001. Of the buildings built before 1919 96.36% had 1 to 3 floors, while in buildings built between 1981 and 2010 the proportion of buildings with 6 stories or more is 27.40%. Interestingly, the newer and higher the building the higher the probability of it being served by an elevator. For homes built before 1946, 0% have access to an elevator as of 2021; this percentage ascends to 35.59% for buildings dating from 1981 to 2010.[104] Always with regard to amenities, 11.05% of the houses had access to air conditioning (20.98% in Lisbon), 51.27% to heating (69.62% in Lisbon) and 39.97% to a parking place (28.04% in Lisbon).[105][106][107]

As of 2021 there were 992 vacant dwelling in the parish.[108] Of the vacant dwellings, 537 are vacant for rental or with the purpose of being sold, while 455 are vacant for other reasons, often abandoned, awaiting their demolition or because a reason for conflict among heirs.[109][110][111][112][113] Moreover, as of 2023 22 apartments are registered as "Alojamento Local", meaning they have the license to be rent on platforms such as Booking.com or Airbnb.[114][115]

In the parish there were no records of homeless people.[116] The parish is nonetheless actively promoting initiatives aiming at helping people in situation of permanent of temporal homelessness.
