Fondé par le roi Luís en 1863 et installé dans le complexe du monastère de Jerónimos depuis 1962, le Museu de Marinha retrace l’histoire des Portugais et de la mer à travers la navigation militaire, marchande, de pêche et de plaisance. Environ 2 500 de ses plus de 18 000 objets sont présentés, des maquettes de navires de l’époque des Grandes Découvertes et instruments de navigation aux cabines royales du yacht Amélia. Le vaste Pavillon des Galeotas abrite des barges royales du XVIIIe siècle, des bateaux traditionnels et l’hydravion Santa Cruz, qui a réalisé en 1922 la première traversée aérienne de l’Atlantique Sud.
