Built originally as a primary school in the 1940s, it was converted into a museum, which opened in 1983 and was renovated and enlarged in 1996. The museum displays implements and other items relating to agriculture, trade and industries of the area including watermills, leatherwork, tanning and the art of the blacksmith. There is particular focus on the linen industry and the production of vinho verde wine.
