National Coach Museum

Ceremonial coaches and a modern museum visit in Belém, with ramps and lifts.

In short

The National Coach Museum in Lisbon’s Belém makes ceremonial coaches the main attraction rather than another palace interior. Give the collection its own time, then return to the waterfront. The museum describes ramps, lifts and adapted toilets in its public areas. Check the historic riding school separately before including it in your visit.
