Ecomuseu do Zêzere

The Zêzere River passes through the municipality of Belmonte and this small museum shows all its history and characteristics. From the source to the mouth, visitors can learn more about the species that live in the river that rises in Serra da Estrela, as well as the vegetation that surrounds it. This museum center was created in the old Tulha dos Cabrais, an austere building that functioned as the granary of the most important family in the village, whose manor is located right in front of it.
