A striking contemporary museum on the Tagus riverfront combining a sleek new wave-shaped building with a beautifully repurposed 1908 power station. MAAT hosts rotating international exhibitions of contemporary art, architecture, and technology alongside a permanent collection of Portuguese modern art. The rooftop walk over the curved white building with river views is free and spectacular. It offers a sharp counterpoint to Belém's historic monuments just minutes away.
