Important information

* Not recommended for pregnant women, people with reduced mobility and heart problems
  • Discover the city that was lost after a devastating earthquake and tsunami in 1755, and how Lisbon was rebuilt as we know it today
  • Learn about seismic activity thanks to interactive displays and mockups while you walk through the streets of the old Lisbon
  • Finally, literally immerse yourself into the earthquake thanks to the Quake simulator, a unique room to re-live the experience in a safe environment

Over 265 years ago, something happened that changed Lisbon forever. In 1755, a devastating earthquake rippled the city and destroyed almost every building. As if it was not enough, a tsunami followed short after to wash whatever was left after the tragedy.

The Lisbon's Earthquake Museum is an invitation to discover the city that was lost in one of the most terrible earthquakes of modern times. In this immersive experience, you will walk through the streets of 1755 Lisbon until the day when everything changed. Quake is a journey to re-visit the wonders and horrors of that era and watch the drama unfold in front of your eyes.

Thanks to a scientific and historical perspective, you will learn about seismic activity, its effects in Lisbon, and also about the social leaders and villains that played a key role during the recovery of Lisbon. You will also live the earthquake in the Quake simulator, a room built with the latest technology to provide a shaky, yet safe experience.

  • When you arrive at Quake, you should go to the Reception to register and receive the RFID (Radio-frequency identification) bracelets, small technological devices to wear on the wrist, that will accompany you throughout the experience
