Planetário de Marinha, Naval planetarium in Belém, Portugal

The planetarium opened in 1965 next to the Maritime Museum and Jerónimos Monastery, establishing itself as a center for astronomical education.

The facility presents astronomical sessions in Portuguese, Spanish, French, and English, connecting maritime navigation with celestial observation techniques.

Regular shows occur every Thursday at 4 PM, Saturdays and Sundays at 3 PM, with special programs for children on weekend mornings.

The Commander Conceição Silva Observatory within the planetarium provides facilities for personal astronomical research and observation.
