Just 40 kilometers from Madeira is the island of Porto Santo, a beautiful place where we can see the house that Christopher Columbus lived in. The place, which is a tourist spot par excellence, was reconditioned and built into a museum, with an excellent state of conservation. In the surroundings we can also enjoy the town that is characterized because the houses preserve the old style, giving identity to the island.
Once in the museum, we can request a guided tour so as not to miss any historical details. In addition, we will be able to see original maps that belonged to the conqueror of America, as well as his belongings and portraits.
In addition, in the museum it is possible to access the thematic library, which has exclusive bibliography on Christopher Columbus. You can also enjoy the large patio and auditorium that the building has.
The Columbus House-Museum is closed on Mondays and holidays. The rest of the days, it can be visited from 10 in the morning. The entrance fee is 1.5 euros.
