Miguel Arcanjo – Guardian of Memory”; photographic “Entre Ondas” by Vitor Estrelinha, and “Desktop” sculpture by Thierry Ferreira.

The Interpretation Center of the Nazaré Canyon in the room of the Hydrographic Institute (IH) and the Surfer Wall Museum (with the exhibition of surfboards of athletes that live the experience of the waves of the North Beach) complete the permanent cultural offer in this building historical, one of the most visited of the county.
