Storage and bag rules at Belém Tower

A visit to Belém Tower goes better with your hands free, since entry rules leave little room for a suitcase. We'll point you to the nearest spots to leave your bags before you reach the entrance.

The tower has no luggage storage and bars large bags, food, and tripods at the door. The closest stops are a 7- to 15-minute walk away, so dropping bags before you arrive is the practical move. The landmark itself is a 16th-century fortification and monument in Lisbon, so you’re visiting a piece of maritime history. If you are coming by public transport, the 15E tram is the most direct route and the Largo da Princesa stop is about a 7-minute walk from the entrance. With Stasher, you can store bags from €1.49 per bag per day.

⁣Every booking comes with the Stasher Guarantee, which protects your bags up to €12,000. Stasher storage in Lisbon can be booked through the website or app.⁣

Getting to Belém Tower with luggage

If you're coming by train, the Cascais line from Cais do Sodré stops at Belém station, a 10- to 15-minute walk from the tower. The 15E tram gets you closer, with Largo da Princesa only about seven minutes away on foot. Bus 728 from Praça do Comércio is another option, leaving you roughly 15 minutes from the entrance. None of these routes solves the luggage problem once you arrive, since the tower itself doesn't allow large bags inside. Stasher offers luggage storage in Lisbon, so you can drop your bag before boarding the train or tram.

Planning your visit and nearby sights

Entry to Belem Tower requires a pre-booked timed ticket, even with the Lisboa Card, so plan ahead. The standard adult ticket costs €15.00. Visitors aged 65 and over and youths aged 13 to 24 get a 50% discount on the ticket price. Expect to spend about 45 to 60 minutes inside. The 4th floor rewards the climb with a panoramic view of the Tagus estuary, including the Monument to the Discoveries and the 25 de Abril Bridge. The tower is closed on Mondays and several public holidays, including January 1, Easter Sunday, May 1, June 13, and December 25.

The Jerónimos Monastery makes a natural pairing, with its cloister open Tuesday to Sunday from 9:30 to 17:30, last entry at 17:00. MAAT, the Museum of Art, Architecture and Technology, lies an eight-minute riverside walk to the west.
