  • Amazing museum about the history of Lisboa. Definitely the first place you have to visit as a tourist when arriving in the city. You get an audio guide and the storyteller has a lovely voice to listen to. Normal price is around €6, with the Lisboa card it’s for free! Had an amazing time and learned something new in a fun way.
  • Enjoyable visit. Price (€6.50) was decent and the audio guided storytelling was educational. Not bad way to spend a hour learning about some of the history of Lisbon. Do wish there was a little more too it, but still worth a visit, especially for 1st time visitors.
  • I really like the way it's been made interactive. You are given an audio guide and walk around the displays whilst the audio tells the story. I prefer this to having to read paragraphs like most other museums. The entry fee is decent (€6.50) and it takes about 45 minutes to go through everything. My only reason for giving it 3 stars is because of the way it glorifies colonialisation (just like other reviewers have said before me) Portugal did not "discover" India, Africa, or Brazil.
  • Excellent museum very well explained / not boring at all (must get the audio guide to understand the tour!). A must-do when visiting Lisbon, ideally the first day so you understand the city even better when you explore it!
  • Really nice self guided tour, indoor with audio support, strolling thru Lisbon history within multimedia environment. ( video, images, mock up , amphitheater etc). Included free with Lisboa card. €10 at door. Probably 1 he if you want to walk they slowly and hear all narratives.
