Vila Viçosa - Marble Museum
«Vila Viçosa is known as the Marble capital of Portugal and this is a title that perfectly fits this town. In this region, the quarrying of this stone is so rich and its application so large that it is found in all aspects of urban architecture. From houses and palaces, churches and convents, right through to fountains and monuments. In fact, a building without marble is unusual in this town. These are just a few of the reasons why Vila Viçosa is the venue each year the famous International Marble Fair. The museum is an enthralling place to find out more about this beautiful natural resource.»
