Pavilhão das Galeotas, a unique place

Inside the Pavilhão das Gaivotas, you’ll find actual ships, such as the brig built in 1780, which sailed for the last time in 1957 during the official visit of Queen Elizabeth II of England.
In addition to this one, there are other traditional vessels—and more.
