I wondered what this would be like before going. It was surprisingly good. A member of the Spanish Royal family ended up in possession of some of the family's older coaches, as she liked to collect them from various family branches who no longer wanted or used them. At some point of critical mass, she decided to create a museum of the coaches. This is not that museum, all the pieces are there but this is a modern climate controlled building with very large elevators for moving the pieces. Presented is a startlingly good representation of the evolution of artistic styles over centuries, as well as the evolution of technology in suspension and materials used. The older pieces are remarkably well preserved and intact. While the coaches still are usable, they are museum pieces along with the VERY first automobiles! check out the autocycle on the first floor!

Highly recommend
this was very interesting and if you havent seen a coach museum before, i recommend going. We spent about an hour or 75 min here. You can spend longer or shorter depending on how much you want to read the signs. hardly anyone was there so very easy to get around. We did not have an audio guide but the signs were sufficient

Surprisingly wonderful!
Yes, you see many coaches. You also get to observe the excesses of royalty, changes in decorating style and advances in design and construction. Our ticket got us into the main modern museum and into the smaller one across the street in the former equestrian building.

Add this to your to-see list
A very interesting museum and one you should add to your “to-see” list. The oldest coach is from the 16th century. The ornateness of the centuries old coaches is amazing and quite the contrast to the more “recent” unadorned coaches. The prisoner coach would have been a very unpleasant ride for anyone over 5’5”. How the coach suspensions changed over the decades was also interesting - makes one glad we have cars with shocks.

Visiting the coach museum
It's a pitty how they take care of such precious vehicles. They should have much more protection from light and other agressions.

Stunning breataking to see. Wonderful
Absolutely mesmerising. I wasnt going to go but so glad I did. Founded by Queen Amelia in 1908 it contains the carriages from Royal Household. Oldest dates to 1708 which took King Philip from Spain to Lisbon in two days! The 3 Ambassador coaches sent as envoy to the Pope are works of art. Magnificent afterwards King Pedro had them shipped back to Lisbon. This was so good I went back twice. Cafe is very good (you can go there before visiting its outside building) staff so helpful. Only criticism is the poor quality gallery of the monarchs. I dudbt have time to see it first time. There no information on them and itss not even portraits of them just Picasso style pictures . However this is magnificent to see Royal Household carriages. Cant wait to visit again!!
