Abstract This article presents a reflection on the role played by science museums from an educational point of view in connection with issues pertaining to museological representation. In discussion is the importance of the microscope as an object of museological prominence allied to its contribution for science teaching. In a first approach, a historical contextualization on the discovery, development and importance of this instrument will be provided, followed by a scientific contextualization on its use as an educational and research tool. In a second approach the fields of application of the microscope as an educational instrument from the 19th century to the 21st century will be outlined. Three science museums in Portugal will be used as examples: the Natural History and Science Museum of the University of Porto, the Science Museum of the University of Coimbra and the National Museum of Natural History and Science of the University of Lisbon.Keywords: microscope; education; museology; history of science.
