History

It was Time that placed us in Santa Marinha, Seia, in the Serra da Estrela. That’s where our story began – and our passion for History – in a house dating back to the first half of the 18th century, recently restored to become the Interpretative Centre of the Serra da Estrela Sheep, as a tribute to our origins.

The same Time that placed us there also led us to create the Bread Museum in Seia, in 1996, which opened to the public in 2002. It was the first of our brands and remains one of the country’s most visited museums today. For over 30 years – even before its public opening as a museum – the Bread Museum brand was already present on Portuguese tables, ever since we built the Bread Factory in Seia, one of the region’s most relevant economic agents, still producing daily for the whole country.
