Welcome to the

Pius XII Museum

The Pius XII Museum is one of the reasons why Braga is so special. Located in the heart of the city, it displays one of the most relevant collections of archaeology and religious art in Northern Portugal. Fine arts also have a special place here, with a gallery dedicated to artist Henrique Medina. There is even a medieval tower, with a late Baroque oratory.

The Annunciation Episode

By choosing these pieces, associated with the announcement of the Saviour's coming to this world, the Pius XII Museum wishes to get all who visit it, either in person or via the Internet, into the Christmas spirit, the true Christmas, whose meaning is the meeting of God with each and every one of us. May this be a very happy meeting, a harbinger of a 2020 filled with blessings of the Child God.
