About

he emblematic Espelho de Agua building has been renovated and is the setting for the Espelho d'Agua Space project. In 2012 the Lisbon Tourism Association (ATL) held a public tender to operate part of the Espelho de Agua building, which is located in Belem, facing the River Tagus. The space comprises 1,200m2 and was first built in 1940 for the Exhibition of the Portuguese World. The central idea of the winning project was to bring contemporary cultures from the different regions visited by Portugal on its sea voyages to the spot where, five centuries ago, Portuguese people set off for the world. Following the renovation works, the Espelho d'Agua Space has emerged with a concept that is in tune with the original architectural identity of the building. Its aim is to house gastronomy, a gallery for art and design, music, cinema and video and other forms of cultural expression.
