As we’ve said before, Fado is one of the most  important trademarks of Lisbon and Portugal. To better understand its beauty you must go to the Fado Museum (between Terreiro do Paço and Santa Apolónia).

The museum doors opened to the public in 1998, showing Fado’s deep roots in the tradition and cultural history of the country, with related items (Portuguese Guitars mainly) and a great story telling about the all the famous Singers.

There you’ll find a Museum School, documentation center, auditorium, a permanent and temporary exhibition circuit.

Save at least 2 hours of your day to go there.

OPEN: Tuesday to Sunday, from 10 AM to 6 PM (last admission: 5.30 PM).

WHERE: Largo do Chafariz de Dentro, N.º 1 – See it on Google Maps
