The monastery is very beautiful but the Church was closed and this was not written at all, so I did not understand how mail the ticket cost was so high, almost double the purchase at the box office

Easy to use the ticket! Need to line up for 2 hrs in Belém tower under the sun and next to the sea, better to go earlier! The church of Jerónimos Monastery is under renovation, was quite disappointed about that.

The architecture of the monastery is absolutely beautiful and definitely one of the highlights of our Lisbon trip. However, the visit to the adjacent church is a total waste of time. The building is under extensive renovation, so you could only see less than 2% of the church (one can only walk in 30 feet from the entrance). Had we known that, we wouldn't even wait in line for 5 minutes for a 1 minute visit. In addition, the staff at the monastery are not very friendly...as if they are doing you a favor to let you in with a ticket!!!

The cloister is beautiful and beautifully kept, but beyond that there is nothing more, 18€ per person is really too much. I expected to see other interesting spaces of the whole monastery, which from the outside looks gigantic

I bought my tickets in advance and avoided selling out and queuing at the ticket office, but because there is no appointment, you have to queue for up to 2 hours anyway.

Your experience

Gain admission to 2 of Lisbon's most culturally significant attractions with a cost-effective combo ticket. Upgrade to add a multilingual audio guide to your cart and gain a deeper insight into the maritime history of the city.

Belém Tower

The Tower consists of 4 stories: the Governor's Room, Kings' Room, the Audience Room, and the vaulted chapel. Dive right into exploring this UNESCO Heritage-listed monument and its historic role. Learn about how it protected the city as part of a tripartite defense system and how this fell apart after the Spanish Occupation.

With its limestone foundation and traditional medieval architecture, the most noticeable elements are the twisted ropes that wind around the building – ending in elegant knots – armillary spheres, crosses of the Order of Christ, and other Gothic features. Belém Tower was built not only to protect the port of Lisbon but also the Jerónimos Monastery.

Jerónimos Monastery

With the 2nd half of your ticket, soak up the different elements that make up this stunning model of Manueline architecture infusing 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.
