The Pavilhão do Conhecimento contains multiple floors of permanent and temporary exhibitions focusing on physics, mathematics, technology, and scientific phenomena.

The building, designed by João Luís Carrilho da Graça, opened in 1999 as part of the Knowledge of the Seas Pavilion for the Lisbon World Exposition.
