澳門博物館於1998年4月18日落成開幕，是一間展示澳門歷史和多元文化的博物館，館內的展品以其豐富和深刻的歷史和文化內涵，展示數百年來澳門的歷史變遷，講述來自不同國家、具有不同文化背景的居民在澳門的生活。

澳門博物館坐落在十七世紀初由耶穌會會士興建的大炮台上，樓高三層，其中兩層建於大炮台平台之下，只有最上一層則由原氣象台的地面建築改建而成，從而最大限度地保留了大炮台原有的建築風格和地貌特徵。

大炮台是澳門著名的歷史遺跡，西側緊鄰澳門另一處著名歷史建築──大三巴牌坊（聖保祿學院和聖保祿教堂遺址）。在長達三個多世紀的時間裏，大炮台一直是澳門防禦系統的核心，直至1965年改建成氣象台。2005年7月15日，澳門歷史城區被聯合國教科文組織列入《世界遺產名錄》，而大炮台和大三巴牌坊是構成澳門歷史城區的重要歷史建築和遺跡。

The Macao Museum was opened on 18th April 1998. It is ahistorical and cultural museum with a vast number of objects of great historical value, which demonstrates the way of life and cultures of the various communities which have been inhabited the city for ages.

The Macao Museum is located in the Mount Fortress, which was
built by the Jesuits in the early 17th century. The Macao Museum
consists of two underground levels and a third one above the
fortress’ top platform where the old Meteorological Services is
housed. The configuration of the architecture has been retained
and preserved.

Built on top of the Mount Hill, the Mount Fortress offers a panoramic view of the city. On its west is the Ruins of St. Paul’s (vestige of St. Paul’s College and St. Paul’s Church). For a long time, the Mount Fortress was the city’s principal military defence structure where public access was restricted. In 1965 this Fortress was converted into the Meteorological Services and later opened to the public. On 15th July
2005, the Historic Centre of Macao was officially listed as UNESCO World
Heritage. The Mount Fortress and the Ruins of St. Paul’s are significant historical monuments of the Centre.
