The Museum’s long-term exhibition presents to the visitors, on the -1 floor an archaeological exhibit with traces found here. On floor 0, the memorial to the political prisoners and the building’s history; on floor 1, the characterization of the Portuguese dictatorial regime (1926-1974), its means of repression and oppression (the Censorship, the police and the political courts). On floor 2, the resistance of the oppositions (semi-legal and clandestine), prison, torture, isolation cells. On floor 3, the anti-colonial struggle and the independence movements of liberation, the overthrow of the dictatorship and the 25th of April 1974.

Celebrate the 50th anniversary of independence by exploring the museum’s archive, and trying to generate more anti-colonial and anti-racist thinking and action, abolishing all forms of violence.

The fight for the right to housing was and is a women’s struggle. In Portugal, the April 1974 Revolution inherited a heavy legacy: there was a shortage of houses to live in and shantytowns, courtyards and islands proliferated in the largest cities.
