The Industrial Tourism program of São João da Madeira promotes a guided visit to Viarco, the only pencil factory existing on the Iberian Peninsula. The visit is scheduled for September 19th.

Viarco is a historic company dedicated to the production of pencils and other writing instruments. Being the only factory of this type in the entire Iberian Peninsula gives it a special status in the industrial landscape of the region.

The initiative is part of the Industrial Tourism program of São João da Madeira, which aims to introduce visitors to the city's industrial heritage. This type of tourism allows the public to closely learn about the manufacturing processes and the history of local companies.
