History

In the heart of Beiras region, one of the most beautiful spots in Portugal, near Abrunhosa village, in the borders of Mangualde and Gouveia, a few miles from Viseu, Abrunhosa-a-Velha rest house was built in 1927 by Professor Dr. Costa Sacadura, with the purpose of rest and fresh air cures.

«I shall not say it is poor and humble, because I didn’t have it built for myself and my family. I had it built with other purposes. In such a region and in such surroundings I felt it could bring benefits to those who sheltered under its roofs ».
(Prof. Dr. Costa Sacadura, 19.. )
