Tourism

Gondomar is a tourist destination where traditions offer us moments of pleasure for the diversity and richness of its artistic heritage, recreational, historical and cultural.

Gondomar is a territory known for Jewelry, much of its history is an established relationship between Man - Factory - Gold.

The Filigree is the privileged field in the gondomarense Goldsmithing, the artisanal production is practiced in small scale workshops, of familiar nature, using techniques passed from one generation to the next.

This inheritance continues to force forcefully in the Municipality, for example, in the ranking of the eight largest Portuguese companies of jewelery and goldsmithing five are gondomarenses. Gondomar Goldsmithing accounts for about 60% of the national production.

Gondomar also offers the most beautiful river beaches of the Douro, namely Lomba, Melres and Zebreiros.
