Museu da Marioneta, Puppet museum in Madragoa, Portugal
The Museu da Marioneta displays over 1000 puppets, masks, props, and stage machinery from multiple countries within a former convent building.
The museum opened in 1987 by the Companhia de Marionetas de São Lourenço and relocated to the Convento das Bernardas, built in 1653 under King João IV.
The collection features traditional Portuguese puppets alongside specimens from India, China, Africa, Brazil, and European nations, representing diverse theatrical traditions.
Located in central Lisbon, the museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 10:00 AM and 6:00 PM with guided tours available.
The institution maintains the largest collection of Portuguese puppets in the country and offers workshops for children and adults on puppet manipulation techniques.
