The Casa da Académica in Lafões is located in the urban area of Oliveira de Frades, a municipality in the Lafões region. More specifically, its building is situated on Rua Coronel Neves, in Oliveira de Frades. Its position on one of the town's main thoroughfares gives it a natural integration into the daily life and environment of the village.
Founded in June 2004, the Casa da Académica in Lafões has established itself as a regionally significant associative space. Its main objective is to create a connection between those who have already been part of or who will become part of the Academia de Coimbra. It covers the municipalities of Oliveira de Frades, Vouzela, and São Pedro do Sul, thus uniting various communities from the Lafões region around a common purpose.
This institution is actively dedicated to the dissemination and appreciation of the rich cultural, academic, and sporting traditions linked to the University of Coimbra. It continuously seeks to strengthen the ties between the Lafões region and the university city. Its existence underscores the importance of academic heritage and how it manifests and revitalizes itself in the local context, enriching the community's cultural landscape.
