One of the oldest active mines in the world

The Aljustrel Mining Park is the sum of several eras. Where you find history, heritage, identity, landscape, research and science.

It is, above all, made of people. Of people who carry an immense soul within them.

A firm ground in a land of depths. And a legacy of experiences.

It is the result of the effort, work and dedication of so many. And throughout all time…

The pulse of a community that knew how to challenge itself and that made life sprout from the depths of the earth, leaving marks on the surface and in the interior.

It is the mark of a territory that is always reinventing itself.

A living museum, a laboratory and a field open to research, which is sometimes discovered in the open air, sometimes explored underground. In the colors of the landscape and mineral deposits.

The narrative of a humble, hard-working and happy people. Who sings his sorrows and turns them into a hymn to ward off sadness.

The Aljustrel Mining Park are the men and women of Aljustrel. Those of yesterday, those of today and those of tomorrow.

They are the miners, of this and other times. They are entire families sharing a cultural root and a common land.

It is the past that defines us, the present that marks us and the future that we have to build.

It's our story to finish. Told in many voices and by many different generations.

A story of dedication and pride that will always have something more to add to you.
