Take a deep dive into the history of the war and the neutrality of Lisbon with our 3-hour walking tour. During the Second World War, Portugal was under the dictatorship of António Oliveira Salazar and remained neutral during the conflict. Between 1932 and 1945, the country, particularly Lisbon, received thousands of refugees looking to escape the war and Nazi persecution, waiting for a visa to leave Europe. During those years, Lisbon became the „waiting room" or sad paradise" for the refugees but was also one of the many stages of international espionage. Spies of different nationalities, including British, German, and American, roamed the city and its surroundings under the surveillance of the Portuguese political police. On this guided tour, we highlight the policy of the Estado Novo toward the refugees and glimpse the shadow of the various spies that crossed the city. Come with us and discover the fascinating role of Lisbon between refugees and spies during the Second world war.
One of the major meeting points in Lisbon, where the old town meets the modern Lisbon. Our route starts hear next to the Monument to Marquês de Pombal.
