Fodor's Expert Review Museu Municipal de Arqueológia

Silves History Museum

With most displays in both Portuguese and English, the town's compact archaeology museum provides interesting insights into the area's history. One primary attraction is an Arab water cistern, preserved in its original location, with a 30-foot-deep well. The museum is a few minutes' walk from the cathedral, off Rua da Sé.
