Museums and Palaces

Located in what was once the home of a wealthy muleteer who grew rich in the cork trade, this building is a good example of bourgeois architecture at the end of the 19th century.  

In addition to an exhibition of the typical Algarvean costume worn in the 19th/20th centuries, there is also a collection of popular religious sculpture. The old farm buildings contain about twenty old vehicles once used in the Algarve.

The museum also includes an exhibition of agricultural implements and tack an area dedicated to cork and the cork industry.
