Eric Mundt
★★★★★7 months agoI loved this museum. The collection included 4 galleries and took about 1.5 hrs. One thing I loved was that every piece was fully scanned with a QR code to provide additional information. I highly recommend (especially if you are just casually enjoying the city and not limited to the 'top 3' tourist sites).
Carlos
★★★★★4 months agoA very interesting museum with a strong permanent exhibition of Portuguese contemporary artists. Well curated and definitely worth visiting while in Lisbon.
