Aliança Underground Museum
A short drive from Curia, the Aliança Underground Museum is set within the historic wine cellars of Aliança Vinhos de Portugal, dating back to the 1920s. This immersive museum winds through a kilometer-long underground network, where art and archaeology are displayed alongside aging wine barrels. The eclectic exhibits—curated from the private collection of Portuguese businessman and art patron José Berardo—include 18th-century Portuguese ceramics, African tribal art, and archaeological treasures from South America, India, and beyond. Tours conclude with a guided wine tasting featuring sparkling and still wines produced on site. English-language tours are available, but advance booking is essential.
