\nThe Royal Picadeiro<\/strong>
\n On May 23, 1905, the \u00abMuseu dos Coches Reaes\u00bb was opened in Lisbon, an initiative of Queen Am\u00e9lia d\u2019Orle\u00e3es and Bragan\u00e7a, princess of France and married in 1886 to the future king of Portugal, Dom Carlos the 1st. The first coach museum in the world was the hall of the old Picadeiro Real, which from that date until May 23, 2015 housed the National Coach Museum. The success was great, but from the beginning the lack of space was felt and it was the Queen herself who in 1906 commissioned a project to expand the museum. With the establishment of the Republic on October 5, 1910, the museum’s collection increased with the arrival of a set of coaches and marbles from the extinct Royal House and vehicles from the church.
\n The Old Riding Arena can be visited, with coaches, the royal family’s painting gallery, as well as a set of cavalry accessories.<\/p>\nTours in Belem<\/h2>\n
