Completed in the late 18th century, its design reflects a blend of baroque and neoclassical styles. It was the world's first church dedicated to the Church of the Sacred Heart devotion.

The Estrela Basilica (Portuguese: Basílica da Estrela) or the Royal Basilica and Convent of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus (Portuguese: Real Basílica e Convento do Santíssimo Coração de Jesus), is a minor basilica and ancient carmelite convent in Lisbon, Portugal. Ordered built by Queen Maria I of Portugal as the fulfilment of a vow, the Basilica is not only a product of the Queen's particularly fervent devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, but remains the most important architectual endeavour of her reign. The Estrela Basilica was the first church in the world dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. DJI Mavic 2 Pro - 2.7K - ND8
