Created to safeguard local and regional identity, by preserving, sharing and demonstrating experiences, "stories" and ancestral aspects of our people, the building was subject to a intervention to maintain the traditional layout of the main area of the building and to assign new functions to the areas that support the activities of the museum. It has a permanent exhibition of utensils, artefacts, instruments, tools, furniture, costumes and footwear which were collected throughout time by the Folkloric Group of Nespereira, and which portray the "modus vivendi" of a time that goes from the beginning of the 19th century to mid-20th century.
