Theatre of ancient Olisipo, built in the time of the Emperor Augustus on the slope below St George's Castle. It was buried and rediscovered after the 1755 earthquake, and was excavated over the course of the 20th century. Part of the cavea and remains of the stage survive, and a museum explains the building.
