Location

The Museu Coleção Berardo is located at Praça do Império, within the Centro Cultural de Belém, in Lisbon’s historic Belém district, an area celebrated for its cultural richness and proximity to some of the city’s most significant landmarks. The museum was previously known for its outstanding collection of modern and contemporary art, but since early 2023, its collection has formed part of the inaugural presentation at the Museum of Contemporary Art within the Belém Cultural Center (CCB), maintaining its status as a central hub for artistic innovation and creativity in Lisbon. Directly across the street from the museum stands the magnificent Mosteiro dos Jerónimos, a UNESCO World Heritage Site renowned for its Manueline architecture and historical importance. Nearby, visitors can also explore the iconic Belém Tower, a symbol of Portugal’s Age of Discoveries, and the Monument to the Discoveries, both offering panoramic views of the Tagus River and the city. The area is also home to the National Coach Museum, which houses one of the world’s finest collections of royal carriages, and the renowned Pastéis de Belém bakery, famous for its traditional custard tarts. The riverfront promenade provides a scenic route for leisurely walks, while the large gardens and open spaces around the cultural center invite relaxation and outdoor enjoyment, making this a prime location for experiencing both Lisbon’s artistic heritage and its vibrant public life.
