  • Exploring Lisbon

    percursos_pela_cidade.svg

    A museum must be involved in its community and at the service of society as well as its development, exposing the material and intangible heritage of humanity and its surroundings for educational, research and leisure purposes.

    That's why the Museum of Lisbon promotes walking tours that connect the locations of museum to their communities and, at the same time, show the city and its heritage.

    These guided and thematic walking tours help understand how this diverse and plural city was built and experienced over time.

    Muitas vezes, uma imagem vale mais que mil palavras. E se essas imagens forem dadas por personagens?
    Esta é mais uma aventura no Museu de Lisboa: dar forma às imagens, mostrar como se vivia na cidade e dar voz aos seus habitantes. Não vamos recriar as personagens dos livros, mas descobrir os protagonistas da vida na cidade.

  • Postpartum programme

    Lisbon reveals itself

    programa_pós-parto.svg

    Developed in close cooperation with the physiotherapist Graça Lucena, who designed the programme, “Revealing Lisbon” associates the recovery from giving birth with a cultural experience in an 18th-century palace. The programme provides exercises to help mothers recover, to care for their babies and, of course, to support the father too.
