CICA - Interpretive Center of the Castle of Ansiães

Located in the historic area of Carrazeda de Ansiães, CICA, the Interpretive Center of the Castle of Ansiães, is a cultural structure of the Carrazeda de Ansiães Town Hall, which allows visitors to encounter the history of the municipality. Conceived from the ruins of a traditional house, the architectural project created a large space spread over two floors displaying archaeological artifacts and a museographic discourse based on ten years of archaeological research carried out throughout the county, but particularly in the castle and walled town of Ansiães. The Ansiães Castle Interpretive Center has an educational service that prepares various themed workshops and guided tours for schools and groups. It also organizes two tourist circuits, the "Castle and Mills Tourist Circuit" and the "Castle and Douro Tourist Circuit", which begin in February and end in September. Visits are free, as is participation in the tours
