The interesting local Ovar Museum reveals a great deal about the history of Ovar and its people. The exhibits include beautiful regional costumes using delicate embroidery and lace, hundreds of dolls and tableaux recreating the old lifestyle, including the interiors of typical homes. The popular novelist Julio Dinis (1839-1871) lived in Ovar and mementoes of him are on display. Other ethnological material, and items related to old customs and professions, contrast with a collection of modern paintings and contemporary ceramics.
