The Romantic Museum is designed to recreate the interior of a wealthy bourgeois house from the 1800s, a period that is characteristic of the city of Porto. This provides visitors with a unique opportunity to step back in time and experience the lifestyle of the city's affluent bourgeoisie during this era.
The Romantic Museum also holds historical significance as the place where Carlos Alberto, the king of Piedmont and Sardinia, spent his last days in exile. He died here on July 28, 1849. This adds an additional layer of historical depth to the museum, making it a fascinating destination for history enthusiasts.
In 2021, the City Council made significant changes to the Romantic Museum. The museum's contents were removed without public consultation to make way for the "Extension of the Romanticism of the City Museum of Porto". This change reflects the city's commitment to preserving and showcasing its history and culture in a contemporary context.
