THE EUROPEAN HERITAGE DAYS 2023
The European Heritage Days are celebrated every year all over Europe.
This year, under the theme "Living Heritage", we intend to explore the practices, places and objects that are now part of our cultural heritage and have been transmitted from generation to generation, adapting, but remaining alive and constantly recreated by communities and groups. , adjusting to their changing cultures, landscapes and the places they inhabit.
In this sense, the Shoe Museum is once again joining this event and has prepared a very special visit and workshop. "By the hands of a shoemaker", transports us to the imagination of what a shoemaker’s workshop would be like. The benches, the tools, the materials, the dirty hands and the hard work of those who spent hours sitting down creating the object that we use the most on a daily basis.
Schedule your visit and discover the many stories of this profession.
