An ancient prision transformed in the Portuguese Center of photography. From the history of the building, to its permanent or temporary exhibitions, there is a lot to find out here! If you're a fan of photography I'm sure you'll like it!
Housed in a former jail, the Portuguese Photography Center (free) has an unusual setting as well as impressive temporary photography exhibitions. The building dates to the 18th century and held prisoners until the Carnation Revolution in 1974; grills still cover the windows. On the third floor is a hugely impressive collection of cameras from every decade, including some fabulous “espionage” cameras from the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s that are disguised as rolls of sweets, cans of Pepsi and packets of Marlboros.
