Museum of the city of Lisbon at Palácio Pimenta

Step into centuries of history at the Museum of Lisbon in Palácio Pimenta, an elegant 18th-century summer residence tucked away in Campo Grande. The museum offers a captivating journey through the city’s evolution, from its early archaeological origins and Roman roots to the expansion of the Baroque era. 

One of the absolute highlights is the massive scale model representing Lisbon just before the catastrophic 1755 earthquake, providing an extraordinary look at a lost urban landscape. Surrounded by peaceful gardens filled with colorful azulejos and roaming peacocks, it remains one of the city's most charming cultural stops for history lovers and curious travelers alike.
