The monument, run by EGEAC, will close this month for renovation and maintenance works.
The project, with an investment of around 150 thousand euros, will require the Padrão to be closed to the public, starting on December 16th and for a period of around three months.
While the work is underway, the Educational Service will remain active, presenting a set of activities aimed at educational institutions in its vicinity.
These activities include several workshop-visits aimed at pre-school education, 1st, 2nd, and 3rd cycles, which will be carried out on school premises. For more information, visit the Padrão dos Descobrimentos website.
