Christ the King is a statue of Jesus Christ located in Almada, across the Tagus River from Lisbon, Portugal. It is also known as Cristo-Rei in Portuguese. The statue stands 110 meters (360 feet) tall, and with its pedestal, it reaches a total height of 133 meters (436 feet).

The statue was built as a response to a vow made by the Portuguese Episcopate in 1940 to God, to seek his protection for Portugal during World War II. The idea was to build a monument similar to the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The project was completed in 1959 and was officially inaugurated on May 17 of that year.

The statue is made of reinforced concrete and was designed by the Portuguese engineer Francisco Franco de Sousa. It was built by the company Ferro-Construtora, which also built the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Brazil. The pedestal of the statue houses an elevator that takes visitors to the observation deck at the top, which offers panoramic views of Lisbon and the Tagus River.

To reach the statue, visitors can take a ferry from Lisbon to Cacilhas and then a bus or taxi to the base of the monument. Alternatively, visitors can drive across the 25 de Abril Bridge, which offers impressive views of the statue and the river.
