Known forAge of DiscoveryBelémmaritimeroyal barges
Portugal's Maritime Museum in Belém is one of Europe's finest of its kind, chronicling the Age of Discovery through an extraordinary collection of navigational instruments, maps, royal barges, and model ships. The annex housing the original royal brigantines — enormous gilded ceremonial boats — is genuinely jaw-dropping. It sits alongside the Jerónimos Monastery making it easy to combine visits. Caveat: the museum is large and can feel overwhelming; prioritize the royal barge pavilion if time is short.
