    An interesting collection of religious items - as you can imagine. But also an exhibition of paintings and some archeological pieces. Plus entry to this museum gets you up the tower. Fantastic views.

    Was interesting. Displays could be better in that a reference map should be included showing the origin of the artifact. I thought the price was high Euro 4.

    Beautiful religious art and some great archeological pieces. The descriptions obviously have a very religious slant to them, but that was to be expected. The Henrique Medina gallery was absolutely beautiful as well.

    One of the best museum experiences I have in Braga! First of all, the receptionist was very friendly and spoke good English. She explained the different exhibitions on each floor and guided me on how to get to the tower (which apparently is on a different building even though you can buy the ticket to the tower from here 😅). Ground floor is the exhibition for artifacts and religious objects from Braga, from stone age until now. First floor is the exhibition for Henrique Medina's paintings. All of the objects and paintings are very well preserved, despite how open they are for the public. Definitely a must visit museum in Braga!
