Felgueiras

The Felgueiras municipality, located in the northern region of Vale do Sousa, is known for being one of the capitals of Portuguese footwear. This sector therefore occupies an important role in the local economy, although agriculture, the production of "vinho verde" (green wine) and handicrafts are also important activities. As far as tourism is concerned, the municipality is part of one of the most interesting routes in Portugal: Vale do Sousa Route of the Romanesque. Its richness is also manifested in the ethnographic heritage: fairs, festivals or pilgrimages. Highlight for the traditional festivities of the municipality, in honor of São Pedro. The peak of the celebrations is on June 29, in celebration of the municipal holiday.
