Museu Municipal do Crato

We stopped here to get directions to the dolmen in this area. The Museum was open, unusual for a Sunday in Portugal. The Museum guide was very happy to show us on the map how to get to the dolmen, which is about 5km outside town. He invited us to take a look at the museum collection which is housed in two floors of a house that was built in the 1750s for a prominent citizen of the town. There are exhibits on Neolithic settlement, the Roman period, the middle Ages and the Baroque period. The family's private chapel is particularly worth seeing. Currently, all the accompanying text is only in Portuguese, but there are plans to have all the text translated into several other European languages.

Museu simples, mas que se torna uma visita agradável. Com espólio da cultura e história

Lindo, visitem
