Visit to the Casapian Cultural Centre

At the beginning of April, we watched the musical “Laura” at the Politeama theatre, followed on the 19th by a tea party at the CMN with the swearing in of the new Board.

At the end of April, we visited the Casapian Cultural Centre, focusing on Casa Pia of Lisbon’s pioneering role in vocational education during the institution’s 243 years of existence.

Inaugurated in 2000, the Casapian Cultural Centre was born out of Casa Pia of Lisbon’s commitment to preserving and disseminating the institution’s more than two centuries of history. Conceived from a chronological and thematic perspective and spread over three floors (former dormitories), the museum’s route covers the history of Casa Pia from its foundation in 1780 to the present day.
