The Lisbon Municipal Chamber (Portuguese: Câmara Municipal de Lisboa) is the administrative authority in the municipality of Lisbon.

These freguesias are: Ajuda; Alcântara; Alvalade; Areeiro; Arroios; Avenidas Novas; Beato; Belém; Benfica; Campo de Ourique; Campolide; Carnide; Estrela; Lumiar; Marvila; Misericórdia; Olivais; Parque das Nações; Penha de França; Santa Clara; Santa Maria Maior; Santo António; São Domingos de Benfica and São Vicente.
The Lisbon City Council is the largest in the country and is made up of 17 councillors,[4] representing, currently, four different political forces. The first candidate on the list with the most votes in a municipal election or, in the event of a vacancy, the next candidate on the list, takes office as President of the Municipal Chamber.
