Vila Museu

In Mértola, the Museum is the Town itself. The Historic Centre is an important scenic complex where buildings are perfectly integrated into the surrounding landscape, as the River Guadiana justified its existence and importance over time. Heritage preservation and protection are the main drivers behind the development of different types of tourist activities, which have the main attractions in the units of the Mértola Museum.
