Fundão

Located in the center of Portugal, Fundão enjoys the proximity of Serra da Estrela and Serra da Gardunha, providing the visitor with magical places, where history mixes with the grandeur of Nature. Lose yourself in its Historic Center and stroll through the Traditional Shops where local recipes taste like cherry. Discover the Urban Art circuit, signed by great names in street art, or Rua da Cale, a witness to the ancient Jewish communities. In Praça do Município, you can relax on the various esplanades set up in the shade of the trees and admire the Antiga Fábrica de Lanifícios (Old Wool Factory), a Pombaline building that is now the City Hall. The heritage of these lands is reflected in the crafts produced there: bass drums, timbrels, pottery, Moorish tiles, lace and embroidery, as well as in the cuisine.
