Reservas Visitáveis do Museu Nacional de Etnologia

The Museu Nacional de Etnologia in Lisbon opens its storage areas to the public, offering a rare behind-the-scenes look at its vast collection. The visitable reserve houses around 3,000 objects, with dedicated galleries for rural life and Amazonian artifacts.

In the Galerias da Vida Rural, visitors can explore exhibits on agriculture, pastoralism, traditional technologies, and domestic equipment from rural Portugal. The Galerias da Amazónia showcase the museum's entire collection of objects from Amerindian societies, particularly from the Amazon rainforest.

These guided tours provide an intimate encounter with ethnographic treasures not usually on display. Access is by prior booking, subject to availability, making each visit a unique opportunity to delve into cultural heritage.
