True. Prince Henry the Navigator, a Portuguese royal, is credited with establishing a school for sailors in the early 15th century. This institution, located in Sagres, focused on maritime education, navigation techniques, and the development of new ship designs, which significantly advanced Portugal's exploration efforts during the Age of Discovery.
