The only portions still standing were the façade and towers, but the rest of the building needed to be completely rebuilt once again. Italian architect Antonio Masella was put in charge of the project, and the works began already in 1753. Masella designed a majestic church, much larger than the previous structure, with a three-<a href="/wiki/Aisle" title="Aisle">aisled</a> nave covered with <a href="/wiki/Vault_(architecture)" title="Vault (architecture)">barrel vaulting</a> and lateral chapels. A <a href="/wiki/Dome" title="Dome">dome</a> was to sit over the <a href="/wiki/Crossing_(architecture)" title="Crossing (architecture)">crossing</a>.

The façade by Blanqui and the towers were finally demolished in 1778, since they were too small in comparison to the scale of the new cathedral. An elegant project for a new façade with two flanking towers, combining <a href="/wiki/Rococo" title="Rococo">Rococo</a> and <a href="/wiki/Neoclassical_architecture" title="Neoclassical architecture">Neoclassical</a> elements, was presented by the <a href="/wiki/Portugal" title="Portugal">Portuguese</a> military engineer José Custódio de Sá e Faria, but financial constraints prevented the realisation of the project.
