Museu da Lourinhã is a museum in the town of Lourinhã, west Portugal. It was founded in 1984 by GEAL - Grupo de Etnologia e Arqueologia da Lourinhã (Lourinhã's Group of Ethnology and Archeology). The president of the Direction Board is Lubélia Gonçalves.
The museum has very complete exhibits of archaeology and ethnology, but the main focus of the museum is the palaeontology hall, which presents casts of famous dinosaurs, as well as fossils recovered from the Late Jurassic Lourinhã Formation. Among these is the famous theropod nest found at the beach of Paimogo, which contains eggs with embryos inside, probably belonging to Lourinhanosaurus. Many of the fossils that belong to the Museu da Lourinhã are on display at Dinoparque Lourinhã, such as the sauropod Zby atlanticus, Lourinhanosaurus antunesi, and Torvosaurus gurneyi.
Nice dinosaurs museum at a reasonable price. Children really enjoyed it. Parking not easy but we visited over the summer, so during pick time. No staff around so it's a bit hard if you need info... Overall a great place to visit!

Cute little museum, not only dinosaurs but also exhibitions on archeology in the region and old professions. Worthwhile a visit for an hour or so.

Low key and small museum with a surprisingly interesting collection of local fossils...

Although the dinosaur exhibition has moved to a different part (45 minutes north) visiting this museum is still worth it. It has been turned I to more of an historical exhibition of how people used to live in the town of Lourinha. Really nice!
