Calouste Gulbenkian Museum
Collection art and gardens after the July 2026 reopening; CAM is a separate museum.
CAM Gulbenkian
An art visit in the Gulbenkian grounds, separate from the main museum.
In short
CAM Gulbenkian is an art visit in the Gulbenkian grounds in Lisbon, separate from the main Calouste Gulbenkian Museum. Look at CAM’s own exhibition programme before choosing the day and ticket. We would give it a visit of its own rather than assuming two museum names mean the same collection or admission.

Why we send people here
Give CAM its own visit for modern and contemporary Portuguese art. Kengo Kuma’s long, tile-lined canopy connects the building with the garden, so leave time outside as well as in the galleries. Choose CAM’s exhibition ticket rather than treating it as another name for the main museum.
