The Aldeia do Xisto of Sobral de S. Miguel has at the heart of its history and ethnography, a very special relationship with gastronomic traditions and also with handicrafts.  

This year we will revive certain traditions as we socialise. The main focus is on the professions and the “Sobral Village Museum” project. There will also be thematic workshops, street entertainment and the sale of local products. All of which accompanied by the excellent cuisine of Sobral.
