Museu de Portimão

The preserved industrial memory and the deep historical relationship with the Arade River and the Atlantic are the central themes of this museum. Through it, the role of men and women in the most relevant economic activity in Portimão and the Algarve stands out, before the change to the new paradigm, the tourism industry. Departing from the factory space and in particular the refurbished “Casa de Descabeço”, the visitor is taken from the old auction room in the Portimão pier to the heart of the factories, following the process of manufacturing, packaging and promoting canned Portimão.
