"The Museu do Azulejo highlights Portugal’s rich tile-making heritage, with an extensive collection of azulejos that vividly portray historical and cultural narratives."
Portugal is famous for the colorful tiles decorating its buildings. To learn more about them and see some up close, check out the Museu do Azulejo, housed in a convent dating back to 1509. It’s one of the most important museums in Portugal because it explains the importance of azulejos (tiles) and the development of styles from 15th-century Moorish times until the present.
