You can see the artifact collection from the 20 years of excavations and small models of the original site featuring all the architectural details of the monument. Also in the same complex of buildings and gardens is possible to visit the Exhibition of Archaeology of the Oeiras county.
This permanent exhibition intends to illustrate the past of the human occupation of the present territory of Oeiras, from the Archaic Lower Paleolithic until the eighteenth century, based on the recovered ground material evidences coming from the collections and excavations made under the aegis of Archaeological Studies Center of the Municipality of Oeiras.
Inside the complex it is also possible to visit the Dark Powder Museum that tells the original story of the powder factory.
