Centre of Contemporary Culture

This 4 floor building features the most challenging exhibitions and it is a remarkable icon of the city!

Designed by Barcelona-based architect Josep Lluis Mateo and Portuguese architect Carlos Reis de Figueiredo, the Centre of Contemporary Culture is a true landmark of Castelo Branco.

Since its opening in 2013, the CCCCB has hosted 22 exhibitions, the vast majority of which were produced from the most important national contemporary art collections, including the State Contemporary Art Collection (CACE).

Equally important were the exhibitions produced from the collections of the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, the Serralves Foundation, the José and Norlinda Lima Collection (Oliva Factory), BCP MILLENIUM, the CGD Collection and, of course, the Berardo Collection, without forgetting the various author exhibitions that the CCCCB has also hosted.
