Núcleo Arqueológico da Rua dos Correeiros (Fundação Millennium bcp)

I loved the tour they gave. The guide is a graduated archeologist. Very interesting all this history. A great visit for lovers of archeology. Some parts of the tour are through very low-ceiling areas. So, consider that you need to be able to bend through your knees. Also, you need to be able to walk some minor stairs. They did all they could to make it accessible, but the spaces are constraint by the historic setting.

It is a great tour which showcases layers of historical occupation, revealing structures and artifacts from various periods, including Roman, medieval, and later times. A lovely lady gave us this tour completely free. You will have to email them well in advance to book a slot. Word of caution- watch your head when you are inside the narrow passageway.

Excellent tour of the Roman ruins of a fish sauce factory beneath the Millennium Bank by a degreed Archeologist. The ruins were revealed while excavating for the construction of an underground parking garage. Millennium Bank cancelled the garage project and restored the ruins for the greater good. Warning … some of the spaces are tight and there are stairs. Tours are free and are about an hour in duration. We requested a tour online for the following day and were informed by 10 am the next morning of our time slot.

Booking was easy, and I received a prompt reply when my preferred time was unavailable. The tour is captivating and easy to follow, with clear explanations that bring the rich history of Lisbon to life. There is plenty of opportunity to ask questions. The entire experience is delivered with passion and craftsmanship, making it truly unforgettable.

I loved this tour! Really interesting and definitely worth the trip.

Archaeological remains were discovered here during the renovation of the buildings of the Millennium BCP bank in the early nineties. The responsible attitude of the bank enabled the expansion of excavations and the emergence of this wonderful archaeological center dating back 2500 years of Lisbon's history. Núcleo Arqueológico da Rua dos Correeiros, which was recognized as a National Monument in Lisbon in 2015, contains finds from the Iron Age to the rebuilding period after the Great Lisbon earthquake in 1755. The museum can only be visited by appointment. At your appointment time, the museum's tour guide will greet you and show you around. When we visited, there was no one there other than my wife and me. Our guide was very polite and professional. It was one of the best museums I have ever visited with its research, preservation and most importantly exhibition method. I think they are a very good positive example for modern museology, especially with their exhibition methods. If you are interested in Lisbon history or quality museums, I definitely recommend you to go.

Excellent archaeological sight (not an ordinary "museum") . Book the free tour with an archaeologist (Joanna was amazing-to the point , polite, very informative).The tour takes about 40'-1 hour. I would advise you to visit on the first day of your trip as to have an overall idea of how the city evolved throughout the centuries. The tour begins inside the yellow building (next to the black door that says "nucleo arcaeologico)!!! There is no number over the glass door so you might miss it and miss the tour. No toilets! At some points, the ceiling is quite low so you'll have to duck. If you have serious claustrophobia, you might wish to avoid it.

It was a fascinating and very educational tour. Our tour guide Joanna was an archeologist and gave a detailed account of all the ruins. The tour is free but you need to book ahead, they only can do small groups due to the tight spaces. It last for about an hour and I have to say, it is one of the best free tours in Lisbon. The ruins were discovered during renovations of the building and BCP have done a great job in preserving the site and making it pubic for everyone.
