Museums and Palaces

The Regional Museum of Paredes de Coura has as its aim to promote the study, conservation and dissemination of the municipality’s cultural heritage, in particular its artistic, archaeological and ethnographic heritage.

The museum has been housed in the Casa da Veiga, whose origins would seem to date back to the 18th century. It originally consisted of two buildings, a threshing floor and a granary. Displayed at the museum are textiles, costumes, furniture, agricultural implements and decorative objects from the region.
