Abstract(s)
Faro has played, throughout the centuries, a relevant role in the history of Portuguese culture. In fact, here were born or lived figures like Samuel Gacon, D. Francisco Gomes do Avelar, Cândido Guerreiro, Mário Lyster Franco, Carlos Porfírio, Maria Campina and António Ramos Rosa, among other great personalities to whom we all owe the art, poetry, knowledge, in short, a big part of what we today understand as culture.
For the Union of the Parish Councils of Faro, Faro’s cultural heritage constitutes a precious legacy from our ancestors, from which we benefit in the present, but which we have the obligation of transmitting to the future generations. As one day António Rosa Mendes wrote: “to be aware of our status as heirs of cultural heritage is to be historically aware.
