Highlights
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.

Ablauf
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. This where we find the location of the Hotel Aviz, at the time, one of the most renowned hotels in the capital. Crossing the avenue we find the pensions and assistance organizations that helped the refugees in a strange land.
Opened at the end of the 19th century, this large avenue was home to several hotels during the Second World War
Famous for the monument celebrating the end of Spanish monarchy over the Portuguese throne, this square used to house several movie theaters. Cinema was both entertainment but also the opportunity to pass on propaganda from both sides of the war
Built in the late 1800s, it was once the international train station, where several refugees arrived
Pedestrian street with several traditional stores
very close to the river, several bars and brothels were the perfect spot to recruit agents and get information about naval activities.
The elegant district of city of Lisbon, with several shops but also the seat of the political police during the Dictatorship of Salazar
The heart of Lisbon with several cafés and hotels where the refugees waited for good news and visa.

About Lissabon
Lissabon fällt von seinen Hügeln zum Tejo hinab: Kachelfassaden, rumpelnde gelbe Trams, Aussichtsterrassen und späte, gemütliche Abendessen.
In den alten Vierteln steckt der meiste Charme. Alfamas Gassengewirr steigt zur Burg São Jorge an und hallt abends vom Fado wider, das geordnete Raster der Baixa führt hinab zur weiten Praça do Comércio am Fluss, und Bairro Alto und Chiado verbinden tagsüber Buchläden und Cafés mit Bars bei Nacht. Aussichtspunkte wie Santa Luzia und Senhora do Monte rahmen rote Dächer und glitzerndes Wasser.
Top-ranked sights in Lissabon: Commerce Square (Praça do Comércio), Pena National Palace (Palacio Nacional da Pena), Alfama.
