Community is the essence of any religion. Therefore, the space of cult is fundamental, as the place where people get together and renovate their faith. The migratory movements towards the west, as well as the globalization, have had an impact in the religious landscape. Hence, the Catholic predominance in Portugal is giving way to religious plurality. The aim of this dissertation is to create a multireligious temple for Oporto - a place where anyone can practice their faith. Its conception is supported on the analysis of Portugal's religious context, alongside the understanding of the diverse faiths that compose it and the study of examples of previously existent multifaith spaces. Once religion is not only practiced through prayers, the temple is part of a wider complex that contains spaces destined to education and charity events, as well as a tanatorium.
