Located to the west of Lisbon’s Center, the Museum is one of the biggest icons of Portuguese History, also known for having the biggest private colection of Portuguese carriage and for being the only museum in Lisbon available for large events.

The museum is housed in the old Horse Riding Arena of the Belém Palace, formerly a Royal Palace which is now the official residence of the President of Portugal. The Horse Riding Area was built after 1787 following the Neoclassical design of Italian architect Giacomo Azzolini. Several Portuguese artists decorated the interior of the building with paintings and tile (azulejo) panels. The inner arena is 50 m long and 17 m wide, and was used for training horses and for horse riding exhibitions and games, which could be watched from its balconies by the Portuguese royal family.

​

Dancing in the museum is not allowed.  Capacity up to 300 seated guests.

The luxurious Museum will bring to life your magical event in Portugal.
