Good to know
Practical notes before your visit.
TimingAllow approximately 1 hour 45 minutes for the museum visit. The palace is open Thursday to Tuesday from 10:00 to 18:00, with last admission at 17:15, and is closed on Wednesdays and certain public holidays. Occasional unscheduled closures may also occur for maintenance, conservation, restoration or formal events, so check the official visitor information before travelling.
EntranceUse the visitor entrance at Largo da Ajuda, at the top of Calçada da Ajuda. The venue lists last admission at 5:15 p.m., so arrive before that cutoff; visitors using discounted or free admission should be ready to show the required proof at the ticket office or validation point.
PriceThe official benchmark is €15 for the "Ticket". No partner offer is available in this comparison, so there is no supported partner price or fee difference to report; if you book elsewhere, verify the final checkout total and inclusions.
DiscountsChildren and young people up to and including 12 enter free. Visitors aged 13–24 inclusive, visitors aged 65 or over, and families consisting of one adult and one minor qualify for 50% admission, with official proof required at the ticket office or validation point. Other free-entry categories include Portugal residents using their Citizen Card on eligible days, unemployed EU residents, visitors with a proven disability over 60% plus one accompanying person, and several professional, education and cultural-sector categories; check the official eligibility rules before relying on an exemption. Discounts are not cumulative.
Planning your visit
National Palace of Ajuda is a 19th-century Neoclassical royal palace at Largo da Ajuda, above the Belém district, and its preserved rooms reflect the court of King Luís I and Queen Maria Pia of Savoy. The Throne Room, also called Sala do Trono, contains Portuguese thrones, Empire-style chandeliers and portraits connected with the royal family. The Banquet Hall displays royal table settings, silver and Chinese porcelain from the 17th to 19th centuries.
Names such as Palácio Nacional da Ajuda, Ajuda Palace, Ajuda National Palace and Royal Palace of Ajuda refer to the same Lisbon attraction, while the Museu do Tesouro Real occupies the palace’s west wing and presents more than 1,000 jewels, insignia and other objects. Visitors interested in the Portuguese Crown Jewels should treat that museum as a separate collection when checking admission products; a Royal Treasury combined ticket is not the same as a standard palace visit.
The official opening hours are Thursday to Tuesday from 10:00 to 18:00, with last admission at 17:15, and the average visit lasts about 1 hour 45 minutes. Bus 760 stops at Largo da Ajuda in front of the main façade, while Tram 18E and buses 729 and 732 serve the Calçada da Ajuda side. The palace is about two minutes from free parking at Largo do Galo da Ajuda.
National Palace of Ajuda provides wheelchair accessibility through an access ramp, an internal lift and two loan wheelchairs, although the usual route includes two staircases. Lockers are available, and umbrellas, helmets and similar objects must be stored before entry. Photography without flash is allowed, but tripods and selfie sticks are prohibited; a skip-the-line ticket would not override these security and collection-protection rules. Ajuda Palace tickets can be relevant to families because children aged 12 and under enter free, while Lisboa Card free entry may apply under the card’s current conditions; a guided palace tour is a separate experience from ordinary admission.
Before you buy
Concrete caveats: security, bags, cancellation, time slots.
- The €15 “Ticket” is an entry product only; guided commentary, an audio guide and combined access to the Royal Treasury Museum are not stated as included.
- Cancellation or refund terms are not specified for this ticket, so do not assume it can be changed or refunded after purchase.
- The ticket is not described as timed-entry or mobile-ticketed; confirm how it is delivered and whether any collection step is required before travelling.
- A ticket does not guarantee that you will bypass admission queues or any security screening in operation at the National Palace of Ajuda; allow extra time before entry.
- No cloakroom, luggage storage or large-bag allowance is stated, so avoid arriving with suitcases or bulky items unless the venue confirms they can be accepted.
- The National Palace of Ajuda is closed on Wednesdays and selected public holidays, so an otherwise valid visit plan can fail if the closure calendar is not checked.
Frequently asked questions

What happens if I arrive late for National Palace of Ajuda?
The venue’s last admission is 17:15, but the available ticket information does not state a late-arrival grace period. If your confirmation gives a specific entry time, treat it as important and allow time for reaching the entrance and storing restricted items.
Can free or reduced-price visitors enter National Palace of Ajuda without buying the standard ticket?
The available “Ticket” is standard entry at 15 EUR and does not display free or reduced categories. Eligibility and any required proof should be confirmed with the venue before visiting, especially for children, students or other concession groups.
