  • 5/5 Zuzanna �. 5 years ago on Google
    History here is brought to you in a very clever way. It's not yet another boring museum, it's a playground for kids of every age. Here you will get a lot of interactive exhibits, hear stories of sailors, play some traditional music and so much more! Definitely a good place to visit with children

    For non Portugese speakers the display is lame. Almost no information offered in English. Super disappointing.

    About how Portuguese discover Brasil. It is still a deliver weather it was a fate. It is fascinating how the story is set up and the facts last n tine. Ofcorse just the good facts remains. Few details about the natives found there. However, Brasil is bigger today than the mother country. Hope the Amazon forest will survive as Earth as well. Good bless.

    Certainly have a greater understanding of the reasoning of where and why, by whom and the disasters which accompanied these voyages. Full of interactivity. The town of Videmonte has quite a few diferentes museums I would suggest buying a tour package tickets, see more for less. For people who enjoy human history this location offers much.

    Although the infrastructure and facility are very good, I was expecting to learn much more about the discovery of Brazil... I was under the impression that all the info in the museum could be found in google. Additionally, all the info is in Portuguese.

    An excellent presentation of Portugal's journeys of discovery. Informative about the history of these journeys and what it felt like to be part of them

    Great museum on Portugal's conquest of Brazil. While the signage is all in Portuguese, the interactive touchscreens have an English language option.

    Interesting place!

  • 5/5 Leonardo M. 1 year ago on Google
    Extremely well built museum in the heart of belomonte, city of Pedro Alvarez Cabral, discoverer of Brazil. Great experience to learn more of the trip to Brazil and the information to get up to the trip itself. definetly worth the visit. You can easily do the museum in half an hour.

Esta Virgen es famosa porque acompañó a Pedro Alvares Cabral en la travesía que culminó con la conquista de Brasil. Nos comentó el guía que casi...
