About
Un museo que exhibe el patrimonio arquitectónico Art Nouveau de Aveiro alojado en un hermoso edificio de principios del siglo XX.
The Art Nouveau Museum, also known as Casa Major Pessoa or Museu Arte Nova, is set in a beautiful early 20th-century building in Aveiro, on the Portuguese coast. It showcases the city's Art Nouveau architectural heritage, a style that shaped many of Aveiro's streets and facades.
What a visit offers

- Local heritage: The museum explains how this movement left its mark on Aveiro, helping you read the city's facades with more understanding.
- A quiet stop: It suits visitors who enjoy museums of architecture and decorative arts and want to slow down between other sights.
