Location

Campo da Feira is located in the town of Oleiros, in the municipality of Ponte da Barca. It is situated in an urbanisation area that shares the same name, presenting itself as an open and accessible space that serves as a central point for various community activities. Its location in Oleiros makes it an easily identifiable and usable spot for anyone in the area.

A Space with History

The name of the place itself, "Campo da Feira" (Fairground), refers to a long tradition of gatherings and activities. It is a space that, by its designation, evokes the memory of past times, where markets or fairs were possibly held, serving as a meeting and exchange point for the local population and for those coming from outside. This vocation as a place of convergence and dynamism continues, although its functions have evolved over time.

Environmental and Community Commitment

Currently, Campo da Feira continues to be a place of practical importance for the community. The presence of waste management infrastructure, such as recycling collection points, demonstrates the locality's concern for sustainability and environmental preservation. These facilities contribute to the maintenance of a clean and organised public space, reflecting a sense of collective responsibility. Thus, Campo da Feira is not just a physical space, but a point where the community unites, both in the past, through its fairs, and in the present, through civic practices.
