The Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Seia joins the European Heritage Days, which this year take place under the theme "Revive, Resist, Reinvent", promoting an initiative dedicated to the preservation, enhancement and dissemination of local historical heritage. The event is scheduled for September 19th, at 3:00 PM, at the Interpretive Centre of Seia and Its Historic Centre, at Largo da Misericórdia.
The program includes the signing of the transfer protocol for the "Fonte de Ceia", through which the Parish Council of São Romão transfers this heritage element to the Santa Casa da Misericórdia de Seia, representing an important contribution to the preservation and enhancement of local heritage and reinforcing cooperation between institutions in safeguarding collective memory.
This is followed by a colloquium led by historian Sérgio Alves, on the topic "Recent Study Data from the Historical Archive of the Misericórdia de Seia", which will allow for the presentation of new findings resulting from the research work on the Institution's Historical Archive.
The initiative is free admission and aims to open heritage to the community, promoting knowledge of the history of the Misericórdia de Seia and reinforcing the importance of preserving the testimonies that help understand the identity and collective memory of the region.
