- College of Corpo Santo, Lisbon was an Irish Dominican College in Lisbon, founded in 1634 by Daniel O'Daly OP, who was its first Rector. The College of Corpo Santo at Cais do Sodré was built in 1659 for the Irish Dominicans, supported by King Philip of Spain (who was also King of Portugal at the time). Since so many ordained priests who returned to Ireland were killed during the Penal Laws the seminary was called the Martyr's Seminary.The College was greatly damaged in the Great Lisbon Earthquake of 1755, and it was not re-built until 1771.It ceased as a seminary after 1850, with the Irish Dominicans in San Clemente al Laterano, Rome available to train candidates for the order, and with the last significant Penal Laws removed in 1829, much of the property was sold to fund the establishment of St. Mary's Priory, Tallaght, Dublin. The Church, rebuilt in the 1770s, following the earthquake, sold in the 19th century, the Igreja do Corpo Santo, Cais do Sodré, Lisbon, still stands and contains the symbols of the Irish Dominican on its facade. Corpo Santo Altar Wine was a wine made under the supervision of the Irish Dominicans in Lisbon, at their Vineyards, Lumiar, Lisbon, which conformed to the Canonical Laws, and exported to Ireland as Alter wine.
