The chapel was built in 1644 by D. Francisco de Castro, then the Inquisitor General of the kingdom, to house his family's pantheon. It was built next to the Cloister of the former Convent of São Domingos de Benfica, currently Church of Our Lady of the Rosary.
The opening of the chapel probably dates from 1648.
It has a mannerist moth. The façade features a rectangular portal, topped by the Castro stone of arms.
The funerary monuments inside are made up of marble urns, sitting on pairs of marble elephants. They bear similarities to the tombs of the chancel of the Jeronimos Monastery.
Here are buried the viceroy D. João de Castro, his wife, D. Leonor Coutinho, D. Ana de Ataíde, D. Francisco de Castro, D. Violante de Castro, Countess of Odemira and Friar Fernando da Cruz .
The presbytery, with a late Mannerist altarpiece, was possibly executed by Jerónimo Correia. The altarpiece also has a canvas with the Last Supper reed.
The Chapel of the Castros or Chapel of Corpus Christi is a chapel located in Lisbon, in the parish of São Domingos de Benfica.
It has been classified as a national monument since 1910.
