Museu do Aljube – Resistência e Liberdade

Local HistoryHistoryClosed · Opens 10amFrom €4Terreiro do Paço (Metro, Blue Line)

Στεγασμένο στο Aljube, ένα κτίριο που στο μεγαλύτερο μέρος της ιστορίας του λειτουργούσε ως φυλακή και από το 1928 έως το 1965 ως πολιτική φυλακή, το μουσείο είναι αφιερωμένο στον αγώνα κατά της δικτατορίας στην Πορτογαλία την περίοδο 1926–1974. Οι όροφοι παρουσιάζουν τη λογοκρισία, τη μυστική πολιτική αστυνομία PIDE, τις ανακρίσεις και τα βασανιστήρια, τα μικροσκοπικά κελιά απομόνωσης που ήταν γνωστά ως «curros», τον αντιαποικιακό αγώνα και την Επανάσταση της 25ης Απριλίου 1974. Στο υπόγειο εκτίθενται αρχαιολογικά κατάλοιπα από τη ρωμαϊκή και την ισλαμική περίοδο, ενώ από τον τελευταίο όροφο προσφέρεται θέα προς τον ποταμό.
