The land of Azulejos /
In the country of azulejos, they are everywhere. In gardens, churches, shops, buildings and even as street signs.
Azulejos in the museum /
Do you want to know the history of the azulejo? Visit our museums and see the best pieces.
History in Azulejos /
When master-craftsmen and artists discovered that azulejos attracted attention, they were soon used for telling stories and conveying messages.
Azulejos in the Metro /
Wander around and get out at all the stations. Look at the walls and discover art works in the Lisbon Metro.
Lisboa, the city of azulejos /
Lisbon is a living museum of ‘azulejos’ or glazed tiles. A walk around the city shows how these little coloured squares are put to good use.
