Full description

Casa do Infante is a compact history museum and city archive occupying one of Porto's oldest surviving buildings, dating to 1325 and traditionally linked to the birth of Prince Henry the Navigator. Visitors move through rooms covering the city's past, and reviewers note that Roman-era structures lie beneath the building, adding archaeological interest.

The visit is short and low-effort, suiting a quiet stop in the historic centre. It is closed on Mondays, and the atmosphere is calm and informative rather than busy.

Reviews

A nice museum, informative, the casa do Infante was built over Roman empire construction that adds more interesting history and artefacts to the place.
