The building is a pink Art Deco mansion and one of the finest examples of Art Deco architecture in Portugal. In 1923, the estate was acquired by Carlos Alberto Cabral, 2nd Count of Vizela, as a summer residence. From 1925 to the mid-1940s, the house was developed with contributions from Charles Siclis, José Marques da Silva, and others, blending Art Deco, neoclassical, and romantic influences. The family moved in in 1944, but financial difficulties led to the sale of the property in the late 1950s. In 1986, the estate became public property and was opened to the public in 1987. Since the establishment of the Serralves Foundation in 1989, the house has been maintained and used for cultural exhibitions and as part of the foundation’s institutional operations.

A bit disappointing. Half of the exhibition rooms were closed, which was mentioned right after I bought the ticket. The park is beautiful and worth a walk, but the €24 ticket price feels too high for what’s currently available.

The museum, the park, the Casa, and the cinema house are some of the must-see places in Porto if you’re into art and culture. Beautifully curated and thought-provoking exhibitions make this place truly special. The Maurizio Cattelan exhibition, in particular, is stunning - it stayed with me for days afterward and really challenged my perspective. This is exactly how art should be presented: immersive, playful, and profound all at once. The concept of the place, the atmosphere, and the scale made me spend an entire blissful day here. The surrounding park is the perfect spot to see some amazing sculptures, to relax and reflect on what you’ve seen, and the architectural design of the buildings themselves is inspiring. There’s also a lovely hidden teahouse where you can grab a coffee or a bite to eat between exhibitions. If you’re in Porto, don’t miss this cultural gem - it’s an experience that will stay with you long after you leave.

A lovely experience which I recommend after a weekend early dinner. The light show was amazing and well worth the ticket! Overall it was a 1-hour plus show that blended perfectly with the park's nature! The light waterfall was the peak part in my opinion.

Beautiful art deco home holding an exquisite exhibition. Truly a gem for those who love such things of its era.

Genuinely one of the coolest museums ive ever visited. The atmosphere was was so welcoming and peaceful. The campus is also surrounded by stunning nature paths.

What an absolute delight this museum is! The location is too far to walk from the old city, but it's accessible with Uber and definitely worth the journey. You have an option to visit the entire area or just the exhibition area and I opted for both and it was well worth every penny. They have different seasonal exhibitions (per April 2024 I believe they have Yayoi Kusama BTW!) and also permanent exhibition. One of the highlights of the museum is the Art Deco house and the huge garden area. Visiting the entire place is quite an exercise so prepare yourself and stay hydrated during hot days. Though they also have a cute cafe near the garden area which serves inexpensive drinks and snacks. Overall, a MUST visit if you're in Porto!

The pink art deco villa's parquet floors creak in musical intervals. The garden's hedge maze has subtle variations in each quadrant. Staff adjust gallery lighting based on the solar angle throughout the day. Has nice things to see, worth passing by.

A place to visit for the art lovers passing by Porto. Great DA in a very impressive building. Unfortunately I didn't visited the garden as it asked to pay for an extra ticket. Don't expect much from the library. Classic art books but nothing more On sunday morning the museum is free for everyone
