Museu Municipal De Espinho - Fórum de Arte e Cultura de Espinho

Really interesting museum with history of the old sardines and food factory as well as local village history around fishing and more. The food factory had an outstanding technology for the time and it served the Royal Portuguese family too besides exporting productos to Brasil and Europe.

Local history and some modern art in an old factory

Everything you want to know about how the canning of sardines and other things brought Espinho to world wide fame. Actually far more interesting than I would have thought, thanks to the personal tour I received from Abel who is friendly and speaks excellent English. Beautiful museum and fabulous exhibition space for resident artists...or others. Really could be doing bigger things, recommend that artists, performers, etc check it out, so much potential! Especially in winter, visited in Feb 2018.

Ok
