Graça is a district and a former Portuguese municipality ( freguesia ) in the 1st Bairro of the capital Lisbon , located on a hill a little northeast of the Castelo de São Jorge .

As a result of the restructuring of the Portuguese local government, the area has belonged entirely to the newly created municipality of São Vicente since the local elections in 2013 .

Until the community reform, Graça was surrounded by the neighboring communities of Anjos , Penha de França, Santa Engrácia, São Vicente de Fora and Santiago. Last 5409 inhabitants lived in the 0.35 km² large community (as of June 30, 2011).
