This was one of the very cool toy museums we were in and we visited quite a few. There is a lot of info on toy making and the context of this industry. Many exhibits are sorted by producer, Portuguese ones. Then they are sorted by theme. And in the end you get some train mechanisms and also a temporary exhibition, ours was about primary classes books and objects. An interesting collection of toys that took 30 minutes to look around. The model railway and town was impressive, but sadly was not running during our visit. We like this museum a lot. You can see first original board games, dolls, soldiers and so on ... All authentic for Portugal. It's on two floors, very well organized. It has a small garden with just two toys, but the botanical gardens is next to it. The town is lovely and if you have time you should visit it. Family ticket cost 6 euro. Absolutely loved this museum! It is laid out very well with language options in Portuguese and English. The museum is not only a trip down memory lane but also reveals how toys evolved as history changed. The staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. I think I'm envious of the staff working in the model train area! Definitely worth the 3 euro entrance fee! Wow...great museum if you love old toys. Great history of the Portuguese toy making industry. Well laid out. Staff was lovely. Don't miss the train section! Great experience overall. Most of the staff was great. One lady at the micromodels room was a bit rude when we asked where we should continue the visit. A great place to learn about the history of toys from kids to adults. The highlight is the electric train room. Don’t miss it if you are in the area. From the turn of the 20th century until the 1980’s, Portugal had dozens of small toy manufacturers. Lovely little museum, very friendly staff, don’t miss the model train display near the gift shop. Beautiful T-shirts for 3.5 Euros!
