The São João da Madeira Memories of Industry project aims to record testimonies and memories of all those who contributed to this story. It has the City Council of São João da Madeira and all citizens who want to participate, sharing their memories, documents and objects related to the creation and transformation of the industrial landscape, the know-how and life around work.
We want to know the history of the different industries that have settled here. What were the dynamics of your creation? What was your daily work like? What is the influence on the lives of people, families, the region?
To this end, we would like to rely on the testimonies of the people who know the city and its industry best, for having lived, worked and witnessed the birth of various production units.
Do you know the São João da Madeira industry like no one else? Do you keep photographs, objects and memories of your work and your daily life? Are you and your family's history linked to industry and São João da Madeira?
Between January 17th and 19th, bring your objects, documents and souvenirs.
Share your memories and help us tell this story, which is a heritage of us all.
