It has beautiful and very informative exhibitions regarding the beauty of Portuguese ceramics and their development and production in Sacavém. We loved the experience. Staff very friendly and helpful. Free entry on Sundays.

In this museum you can find out about the history of Sacavem ceramic factory since the foundation to the current time that is a museum. The ground floor consists of the samples of ceramics manufactured here and on a wall there is a timeline of important events, all in Portuguese. Then there is the huge kiln where they used to make ceramics. there is English description in here as well. On the second floor there is temporary exhibition. The staff are very friendly, willing to help, explain and impart their passion plus that one of them could speak English as well. The entrance is free on Sundays before 13 and the museum is close to train station and it is easy to get there.

(Original) “ Este espaço é centenário, retrata a história da cerâmica de Sacavém, muitas pessoas passaram por aqui com esforço e dedicação. Um marco para esta região, vale apena visitar.

Excellent! A piece of story of the Portuguese ceramic.

Loved this placed. I definitely recommend this museum. Didn't expect to find it so interesting. The staff member were eager to help even though there was a language barrier. It's a must! 💜💜💜💜💜💜

A very small museum that tells the story of one of the biggest factories in Lisbon. Interesting objects, beautiful architecture. It costs 1,50 € but it’s free on Sundays. The staff is kind, welcoming and very well informed.

(Translated by Google) I think many may have heard of it: He fell to the ground, if he did not leave, it's from Sacavém! For some time I wanted to know the museum of this old factory so much talked about, I liked it without a doubt it was a great factory that deserves to be appreciated, the lady of the reception very friendly, was very attentive with my daughters thank you, a place with lots of light, easy wheelchair access and strollers, ticket value super inviting, the staff that comes with children at the back of the museum has a playground that can be a great stop too. (Original) Acho que muitos talvez já ouviram falar: Caiu no chão, se não partiu é de Sacavém ! Já algum tempo tinha vontade de conhecer o museo dessa antiga fábrica tão falada, gostei muito sem dúvida foi uma grande fábrica que merece ser apreciada, a senhora da recepção bem simpática , foi super atenciosa com minhas filhas obrigada, um local com muita luz,fácil acesso para cadeiras de rodas e carrinhos ,o valor do bilhete super convidativo, o pessoal que vem com crianças nas traseiras do museo tem um parque infantil que pode ser uma ótima paragem tbm.

(Translated by Google) I am from the earth, so it may seem demanding or, on the contrary, enthusiastic about little. I had been visiting the museum for almost fifteen years. I thought it was better (maybe because I don't remember it well). Visitable, has two rooms. One with a permanent exhibition, which tells the story of the Sacavém Loiça Factory and shows significant pieces, for periods. It also has tile catalogs. The other room has temporary exhibitions. At this moment, there is one about pieces of pieces and their identification, found in an excavation made in the Convent of Tomar. In this room are also the factory brands with their parts. There was also a factory oven with its chimney, the ex-libris of the museum. In this space are laboratory parts. There is a store. I thought I would find more pieces replaced, though the museum's estate is huge, as they explained to us there. The fun is to see pieces that were part of our daily lives and some others, curious. On the day we went we did not pay admission, but the ticket costs € 1.5. It deserves to be visited, it is a very important part of the history of Sacavém and, piece of the contemporary history of Portugal. (Original) Sou da terra, por isso pode parecer exigente ou, o contrário, entusiasta com pouco. Já na visitava o museu à quase quinze anos. Achei-o melhor (talvez porque não me lembre bem). Visitável, tem duas salas. Uma com uma exposição permanente, onde conta a história da Fábrica da Loiça de Sacavém e, mostra peças significativas, por períodos. Tem também catálogos de azulejos. A outra sala, tem exposições temporárias. Neste momento, está uma sobre pedaços de peças e sua identificação, achados numa escavação feita no Convento de Tomar. Nesta sala estão também as marcas das fábrica com respetivas peças. Ficou também um forno da fábrica com sua chaminé, o ex-líbris do museu. Nesse espaço estão peças de laboratório. Tem uma loja. Pensava encontrar mais peças repostas, se bem, que o espólio do museu é enorma, como lá, nos explicaram. O divertido é ver peças que fizeram parte do nosso dia a dia e algumas outras, curiosas. No dia que fomos não pagamos entrada, mas o bilhete custa €1,5. Merece ser visitado, é uma parte muito importante da história de Sacavém e, pedaço da história contemporânea de Portugal

(Translated by Google) Very interesting! Very friendly and available staff. I recommend! (Original) Muito interessante! Pessoal muito simpático e disponível. Recomendo!

Quite nice pieces on display

Many beautiful ceramic pieces to see. And some other items related to the factory's history. Free to visit on Sundays until 13h.

Interesting local museum about the history of the ceramic factory and industry of the area

Very cool place, although hidden and usually empty. The entrance is free on Sundays, but when we went there, we were the only visitors. Very nice exhibition with educational and esthetics aspects, especially if you’re interested in azulejos and Portuguese design. You can paint your own vase there.

The Sacavém factory was a renowned manufacturer of tiles and ceramics and a major employer in Sacavém. This delightful museum records its history from its founding in the 1860s to its demise over a 100 years later. They produced tiles for a number of significant buildings including those in Sao Bento train station in Porto, the old train station in Lagos in the Algarve and buildings across Lisbon. They also designed and produced plates and other items as well as sanitary ware. Sacavém is a 14 minute train ride from Santa Apoliona train station in Lisbon and a return ticket costs 3.30€. Turn left out of the station and it’s less than a 5 minute walk. The museum houses one of the old Bottle Kilns and has a display of cups and plates produced by the factory. The upper floor is used as an exhibition space which changes at intervals. There is also a library housing records of the original designs produced by the artists employed to produce designs for the tiles and ceramics and an archive of factory orders alongside a host of books on ceramics from across the world. Pay on exit! 1.50€ or free if you are over 65. If you like the tiled buildings you see in Lisbon this small museum is well worth a visit. Staff are amazingly friendly and helpful. Sacavém itself doesn’t have too much to offer. There’s a fort but it’s not open to the public! Not much of a town centre which is surprising given the size of the town but there a few coffee shops and large supermarkets. Well worth a visit.

Not recommended, there's no one ther, very poor.

I loved it, it was very appealing. Thanks
