Located in the district of Bragan\u00e7a, in the region of Tr\u00e1s-os-Montes and Alto Douro, and with an area of approximately 244.49 km2, the municipality of Freixo de Espada \u00e0 Cinta prides itself on keeping alive the traditions that mark its identity, preserving them and passing them on to future generations, not letting them fall into oblivion. It is marked by the imposing Manueline architecture, the ancestral practices, the strong identity of the people, the love of the land, the constant search for the best that is made here, the combination of the contemporary and the modern, the tireless defense of the genesis of this territory.<\/p>

Freixo de Espada \u00e0 Cinta is one of the few areas on the Iberian Peninsula where silk is still produced and worked 100% by hand, from the rearing of the silkworm to the production of unique pieces of indescribable beauty and value, made on handcrafted looms using methods and knowledge passed down from generation to generation. In addition to this differentiating element, there are endogenous products of superior quality that are recognized both nationally and internationally, such as wine, olive oil, olives, almonds, smoked meats and oranges, as well as a varied range of cultural, historical and heritage tourism, which evokes the unique potential of the municipality of Freixo de Espada \u00e0 Cinta and consolidates it as a tourist destination with growing prestige and notoriety.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
