Bridging the old and the contemporary, António Sousa Oliveira’s Binding Workshop is one of the few spaces dedicated to this activity that still resists the passage of time.
Founded in 1969, with a small workshop on Rua das Taipas, it moved in 1974 to the space where it still stands today, Rua do Pinheiro.
Its founder, António Oliveira, passed on to his descendants all his passion and dedication for the art of binding. They are the ones who, today, make use of this excellent training and lead this family business, continuing a craft business that has already been operating for half a decade.

In the middle of old Foz, you will find the pleasant corner that is Papelaria Jomar, a place with a great longevity, with a history of over 60 years. Its current owner, Mr. Lucílio is 86 years old and has been his employee since the age of 16. At this moment it is his daughter who is in charge of this space, where he will find a little of everything: like national and international newspapers and magazines, tobacco, ice cream, stationery, school supplies and toys. That is, you can keep up to date, get a last-minute gift or simply eat an ice cream. You will be well received, with sympathy and attention in a space with a lot of tradition.
