Aveiro, Design City

Aveiro is a deeply inspiring city and the perfect destination for design lovers. Along with the exquisite art nouveau buildings, Aveiro is an icon of creation and colourful brands.

Art nouveau city

Distinguished as the city-museum of Art Nouveau in Portugal, Aveiro is a member of the “Réseau Art Noveau Network”, along with Barcelona, Brussels, Budapest, Glasgow, Helsinki or Havana.

Discover the charm of this delicate and seductive art period of the 20^th century by taking a walking tour with a guide through the Art Nouveau route, a track created to help identifying all buildings and monuments which have marks left by names such as Ernesto Korrodi, Francisco Augusto da Silva Rocha, Jaime Inácio dos Santos, José de Pinho or Carlos Mendes.

The Art Nouveau Museum, housed in Casa Major Pessoa, is the greatest icon of art nouveau style in Aveiro, as well as one of the most architecturally admired buildings in the city.

A Minha Terra

A Minha Terra is an enchanting ceramics shop of Aveiro that owns a truly Portuguese soul. Created by the French of Portuguese origin Vince Robinet, this centrally located store sells the most fascinating products made by the hands of skill-full craftsmen from the whole country.

It's not only about ceramics, but many other Portuguese traditional arts, such as: colourful hand-woven blankets; wooden toys or olive/salt-based natural soaps. Tradition and innovation brought together in a shop that showcases the essence of Portuguese cultural identity.
