Museu Marítimo de Sesimbra

About Museu Marítimo de Sesimbra Android App

Embark on a journey with 200 million years old, from Pangaea to today. During this journey, you will have the opportunity to cross the oceans, fish in seas never once sailed, dive in the Luiz de Saldanha Marine Park, get your bearings by the North Star, gather sardines in nets of large “Valencian-style” traps, or pray a novena to the Lord Jesus of Chagas, patron saint of the Sesimbra fishermen.
Housed in the Santiago Fortress, a military building dating back to 1642, the museum was created with the direct support of Sesimbra’s community. It contains a fabulous collection originating not only from archaeological finds, but also from an ethnographical study carried out over four decades.
