The Amália Rodrigues House-Museum, located on Rua de São Bento in Lisbon, is a cultural reference space dedicated to the preservation, appreciation, and promotion of the life and work of Amália Rodrigues. Open to the public since 2001, the house where the artist lived for more than four decades retains its authentic and welcoming atmosphere, allowing a unique connection with Amália’s human and artistic dimension.

The Amália Rodrigues House-Museum is part of the Portuguese Network of Foundations and the Network of Houses and Museums of European Musicians, reinforcing its role in cooperation and knowledge-sharing among cultural institutions at both national and international levels.

More than a museum, Amália’s House is a living cultural space that perpetuates her legacy and promotes encounters between heritage, art, and the public.

Guided tours are at the heart of the museum experience, leading visitors along a route that reveals Amália’s personal objects, daily life, and memories. The House-Museum also offers personalized visits designed for groups, schools, or researchers, enabling a more in-depth and thematic approach to different aspects of her life, her work, and her legacy.

The garden, a space of tranquility and beauty, remains one of the most emblematic areas of the house, hosting cultural activities that invite artistic enjoyment in a close and inspiring setting.

Beyond heritage preservation, the House-Museum plays an active role in contemporary cultural life, promoting initiatives that strengthen the dialogue between tradition and modernity.

Among these are the series “A Poesia Subiu ao Povo”, which celebrates the importance of poetic language in Amália’s work, as well as fado concerts in the garden, educational workshops, and temporary exhibitions that bring new audiences closer to her artistic and human legacy.
