Art Museum · Best for art lovers & first-timers

The Museu Calouste Gulbenkian holds the personal art collection of Armenian-British oil magnate Calouste Sarkis Gulbenkian (1869–1955), who spent his life acquiring exceptional works across every major collecting category. His taste was extraordinary: he bought from the Hermitage when the Soviet government sold off tsarist treasures in the 1930s, and assembled one of the most internally balanced private collections ever formed.
