Very nice place, but too much line to get in, wouldn't it be better to scan the entrances, making people buy tickets with a specific time?

The monastery is magnificent! Wonderfully well maintained, but what audio guide are you talking about? There is no audio guide! And paying for something that doesn't exist is very annoying!

The ticketing experience was great, very easy. The Monastery is beautiful, worth the visit! However, the queues are always very long, and you cannot buy a ticket for a timeslot, just for a day - therefore I would recommend to be there at least half an hour before the opening time, or even an hour. It is also worth to check, that the church besides it is open - so you can visit them both after each other, but you need a separate ticket for the church.

The queuing! 1:30. There's no good reason to have a timeline on the ticket. It's amazing of course but that point was disappointed for our program for that day.

The organization was perfect and the staff at the entrance very kind. I would only say that the hours in line are not worth the visit to the monastery, which although gorgeous ends in just a wonderful cloister. Hours in line are done for the Vatican museums or the Louvre where you then stay all day to visit. Although beautiful I would not recommend it.

These tickets are valid until 30 Jun, 2024.

A Portuguese national monument since 1907 and a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1983, the Jerónimos Monastery is one of the highest symbols of medieval Portuguese architecture. Historically and artistically connected to the Belém Tower, both these notable landmarks of Lisbon were built on the initiative of King Manuel I, who ruled between 1495 and 1521. The Belém Tower was built not only to protect the port of Lisbon but also for the Jerónimos Monastery.

Soak up the different elements that make up this stunning model of Manueline architectural style including Gothic, Moorish, and Renaissance styles. The two levels of cloisters are so intricate and filled with structural detail that they took a hundred years to be completed! Spot mythical creatures like gargoyles and marine animals within the carvings, columns, and arches. Don’t miss the vaulted ceilings on the lower level of the monastery or the views from the higher level of the adjacent Church of Santa Maria de Belém.

Optional upgrade with the Lisbon Card
