The Necessidades Palace is a historic building in the Largo do Rilvas, a public square in Lisbon, Portugal. It serves as headquarters of the Portuguese Foreign Ministry. The Palace has been classified as a Property of Public Interest since 1983.

The Necessidades Palace is a historical landmark in Lisbon, Portugal. It is the very site where a Chapel of Our Lady of Needs once stood – a reflection of King John V's gratefulness for having his petitions answered by the lady. The palace has been a center of exciting events throughout Portuguese history. It was the residence of the Braganza Monarchs starting with Queen Maria II. German Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha amassed an impressive collection of artwork during his stay there. Tragically, it was here that King Carlos I and his son Prince Luís Filipe were assassinated in 1908. However, their funeral was held at the palace as well. In 1910, after the Portuguese revolution began, the palace shelled by a cruiser in the Tagus River. It now houses the Portuguese Foreign Ministry headquarters.
