World of Discoveries

WORLD OF DISCOVERIES is an Interactive Museum and Theme Park that reconstructs the fantastic odyssey of Portuguese navigators, who crossed oceans to discover an unknown world.

The Discoveries launched humanity into an era of globalization and forever changed our relationship with the planet.

Portugal played a leading role in this process for centuries on end, creating new oceanic routes and putting people, animals and plants in circulation around the world.

This space is, therefore, about the encounter of cultures and the scope of the ambitions, ideas, efforts and innovations that made them possible.

Launch yourself into the adventure that changed the world, through our twenty large permanent thematic areas.

Finally, those who want a timeless souvenir will certainly find it in the ” Sphera Mundi ” store , an experience of diverse and original objects alluding to the Discoveries.

Embark on your discovery, in the city where Infante D. Henrique was born, the man who gave new worlds to the world.“So great an empire! So many crossed seas, so many dangers overcome, so many discoveries experienced!” in Caravelas, The Golden Century of Portuguese Navigators, Olivier Ikor.
