Casa do Vinho Verde with cinema in the garden this summer
In two years’ time, Palacete Silva Monteiro will become a reference space for the city’s culture. The 17th-century building that now houses the Vinho Verde Region Viticulture Commission (CVRVV) will open the garden to the city this summer with movie screenings.
The idea is, according to the president of CVRVV, “to make a contribution to culture with exhibitions, conferences, concerts, theater, photography, and we hope to open up the space to the city”. The space has been undergoing restoration work since 2019, by the students of the Catholic University of Porto, in order to preserve and promote this secular building. The intervention includes the recovery of the original panels and decorative details.
