It is a meeting point for the traditional culture, environmental practices and Nature. Organic (biological) certification guarantees the good quality of its products: wine, oranges, olives, chestnuts and walnuts. Sculpted granite walls and medieval roads delimit the ancient buildings. Its construction began on the early XVIII, improved by the end of that century.The main works were inspired by the house style called Pombalina (architecture style developed as a result of the great earthquake of Lisbon, 1755). The Casa do Loureiro has been part of the heritage of the same family for many generations. Therefore the current owners live in the main house as a living museum of everyday life, which saves among others, documents related with its history.It is located in the magnificent landscapes in the Douro valley, 50 km from the city of Oporto.
