Póvoa de Varzim is a coastal city in northern Portugal, known for its historical connection to fishing and maritime culture. The city, which developed from an ancient fishing village, combines its traditional seafaring heritage with modern urban development. Its beaches and seafront have historically been central to both its economy and cultural identity.
The city has maintained strong cultural traditions, particularly visible in its maritime museums and the unique symbolic language used by the local fishing community known as 'siglas poveiras'. These geometric symbols, used to mark fishing gear and boats, represent an important part of the city's intangible cultural heritage.
Beyond its maritime heritage, Póvoa de Varzim has developed into a significant cultural center in the Porto District, hosting various cultural events and maintaining several cultural spaces that reflect both its traditional roots and contemporary artistic expressions.
