Historic Centre Walking Tour

With a history dating back to pre-National times, Arouca was a territory with its own identity, many centuries before it became a municipality. However, the history of the town of Arouca only stood out among other lands from the foundation and subsequent growth of its Monastery.
Above all, after the entry into its community of nuns of D. Mafalda, daughter of our second king, D. Sancho I.
The guided tour of the main points of interest in the historic centre of Arouca, such as the Monastery and its extremely rich Museum of Sacred Art, the Capela da Misericórdia, the Praça Brandão de Vasconcelos and the Calvário, offers visitors a journey of understanding into medieval times, when, in the shadow of a monastery, a noble town developed.
