Mosterio dos Jerónimos

Archeological Museum
Until 1834, when the religious order was disbanded, the west wing of the Hieronymites Monastery served as the sleeping quarters of the monks. In 1850 the wing was renovated in neo-Manueline style.
Since 1893 it has been home to the Museum of Archaeology - the country's most important archaeological museum with an interesting collection of precious metalwork - and the Maritime museum, which highlights Portugal's rich maritime history with a display of model ships, globes, and other objects.
