This museum, is newly opened April 2024. It has been tastefully done. It’s inside the castle which was turned into a prison. But now is a museum. It’s very informative, and the true story is also very emotional. A must see if you are visiting Peniche.

Museu Municipal de Peniche, is a pretty small museum which is worth a quick visit. Basically the museum houses evidence of the political prison of Salazar’s dictatorship in the 20th century.

The museum is in two parts. The town museum and sea bed finds were interesting but the real star is the museum to the resistance against fascism. It is all too easy to forget that large parts of Europe were still in Fascist government well into our life times . This is moving record of, and tribute to, those who resisted in Portugal. Well worth a visit.

I visited this museum on a wild, windy, wet day and it passed an hour nicely. It is the most run down museum I have ever been inside and is overcome with damp. A lot of the artefacts are humdrum..It includes both fishermen ropes and marine bouys as some of its displays! The sea shells and displays of lace were more enjoyable. However, the most interesting fact was the political prison it had served as previously and you are able to walk in and around the cells. A bit creepy if you're on your own like I was. Worth a look if you have a few hours spare.

Although we did not visit the museum on this trip we went inside the fortress (free entry) which has a long and interesting history as a defense for the town of Peniche. I did not, however, know until this visit that it was used as a high security political prison between 1930 and 1974, during the Portuguese dictatorship. None of the information is in English, which is a shame, however we still managed to get the gist of the history of the fortress and found it very atmospheric and moving. A surprisingly fascinating place to visit with some lovely views over the coastline.

This museum is free but really does not have much to offer
It did have one famous jail break in 1960 of Alvaro Cunhal
Not worth a detour
