What you need to know
- A 1901 tram links the halls, so the visit includes a short ride between the history rooms and the vehicle halls
- Vehicles kept as they ran: the later trams and buses are shown as they left service, and every one in the halls can still run on the streets
- Trams 15E and 18E both serve the museum, so arriving on a working tram can be part of the trip
About
The Carris Museum tells the story of Lisbon's trams and buses inside the old Santo Amaro depot. A 1901 tram drives visitors between its three spaces. The first covers the company's history, with a model of the Santa Justa Lift built in 1892. The second fills 2,000 m² of former workshop halls with horse-drawn cars, yellow trams, buses and a ticket printing shop. The third holds vehicles waiting for restoration.
