This is an amazing place to check out if you are into the ruins and history of the sacred sites. Such a cool place. Plus you can buy a ticket that is good for 4 museums in the group. If you are checking out the free ruins across street ensure you pay the fee to check out the museum as it is worth it.

We recently visited the Roman Theatre remains in Lisbon and were pleasantly surprised by how well done the site is. Although it’s quite small, it’s incredibly informative and thoughtfully presented, giving a real sense of the history and significance of the area. One particularly lovely touch is that they host free concerts on Thursdays a beautiful way to keep the spirit of the theatre alive and open it up to the public in a meaningful way. It’s great to see such cultural heritage being celebrated like this. We do hope there’s still more to be discovered and that future excavations might reveal even more of the site’s past. For now, though, it’s well worth a visit if you’re in Lisbon and interested in its layered history.

these are small ruins of a Roman theater; there had been several buildings over them and currently there's work in progress on site
