The National Railway Museum tells the story of railway history in Portugal. A tour around one of the best collections of railway heritage in Europe, with around 36,000 objects. We propose a journey through time, from the first steam locomotives, to the rail transport of the future.
This is a space for collective experience, dialogue and shared knowledge, open to all audiences who are willing to discover the cultural heritage and the historical, symbolic and technological role of rail transport in Portugal.
A visit to the National Railway Museum includes the discovery of unique objects associated with themes as diverse as the old stations, apprentice schools, the construction and maintenance of the railroad, but also medicine, hospitality or model building.
By visiting locomotives, coach cars, lounges or wagons, one realizes the relevance of an authentic national heritage that includes unique pieces such as the Royal Train or the Presidential Train.
We have several services and activities at your disposal, which are designed to meet the needs and expectations of each visitor, in a constantly evolving approach. You can experience driving a locomotive in the Railway Driving Simulator or travel on the manned model circuit.
