Location

Musibéria is located in Serpa, a town nestled in the heart of Alentejo, a region known for its vast landscapes. The center is specifically situated in the Bairro de São Francisco, an urbanized area integrated into the town's urban fabric, offering a tranquil and accessible setting for visitors.

Industrial and Cultural Legacy

The building that now houses Musibéria has its own history. It began as a cereal milling factory, the Nova Companhia Nacional de Moagem, starting operations in 1907 and closing its doors in the 1970s. Subsequently, the Municipality of Serpa acquired and renovated this space, transforming it into a vibrant cultural center. The architecture of the old factory was carefully preserved, and it is still possible to observe elements of its original function, creating an interesting dialogue between its industrial past and its current artistic vocation.

A Hub for Music and Dance

Musibéria is a cultural space dedicated to promoting and stimulating artistic creation, with a particular focus on music and dance, exploring the rich cultural heritage of the Iberian Peninsula. The center was designed to host various activities, from producing shows to researching new pedagogical approaches in these fields. With its infrastructure, which includes studios, an auditorium, and galleries, Musibéria promotes a varied and regular artistic program, which may be of interest to those seeking enriching cultural experiences in Serpa.
