To learn about cheese!

I though that I knew everything about cheese: I was wrong ! It's a small museum but we learn a lot about Serra da Estrela cheese - from the milk to the final product ! For instance I learned something very important - that there is no validity for cheese and that we should not keep it in the regrigerator!

    Belmonte sightseeing
    Museu is very small. Got some history about how the cheese is done. Get to taste 3 types at the end but the entrance fee of 5€ is not worth it.

    Fantastic, highly recommended. Cinco Estrelas
    Absolutely worth seeking out. Fantastic little gem, hidden away, but very deserving of a visit for any cheese lover visiting the Serra da Estrela region! Cinco estrelas! Absolutamente é vala pena visitar pra alguém a passar por o região da Serra da Estrela. Um bom diamante com tantos informações!
