Q:
I saw that the Centro De Arte Moderna is closed for the rest of 2023. The main Gulbenkian Museum with the Rene Lalique jewelry is still open for the public during the last week of September 2023, correct?
A:
I have no information - I would contact the museum through their web site "contact request" and ask them directly. It is a spectacular collection!

Hi: I walked along the Av. de Berna and then turned onto a street (which doesn't have a name on Google maps for some reason). The gate looks like it is across the street from a Restaurant called O Policia. The museum has two main buildings, which you can see on the map, but to the right of the map there is a small building off by itself (you see it near the O Policia) which is the snack bar next to the gate. I hope this helps?

We went on a Monday mid-day and it was not crowded at all. I think you'll have no problem on a Sunday. The museum is really spacious and also has a large outdoor area. One other benefit for you is that it is located outside of the city's historic center where most of the tourists are. I hope you enjoy your visit.
Q:
What is the last entry time? Thank you.
A:
Six thirty, the museum closes at seven p.m.. But you need some two hours to enjoy the museum as there are very diverse collections there. If under time pressure, skip the moden. …
