Núcleo Museológico da Fotografia do Douro Superior
The memory and history of a people are also created with photographs, this is, at least, the idea of Arnaldo Duarte da Silva, professor and passionate about photography, who decided to create a Douro Superior Photography Museum Center. The collection includes photographs taken in the municipalities of Torre de Moncorvo, Freixo de Espada-à-Cinta, Mogadouro and Vila Nova de Foz Coa, and material, namely, cameras and other equipment, from 1886 to the present, as well as a collection of films from the 40s and 50s of the 20th century. These are objects that the group's mentor collected throughout his life, especially from former photographers. The museum space is housed in a house in the medieval area of Torre de Moncorvo, restored for this purpose.
