In 2013, UNESCO recognized the exceptional value of the University of Coimbra - Alta e Sofia by awarding it the label of World Heritage Site, which positions the city as one of the tourist and cultural destinations of choice in the region and the country.

Coimbra has a vast and unique heritage, built up over centuries, and was chosen by King Afonso Henriques as the first capital of the Kingdom of Portugal. The city was the birthplace of kings and a multicultural center, renowned for the definitive establishment of the University in 1537, one of the most important and prestigious educational institutions in Portugal.

Closely linked to the city and the university are the academic traditions, the sororities, the student life and the song of Coimbra, where the erudite and the popular merge, constituting an intangible heritage of excellence.

Coimbra's natural landscape is equally attractive, with its parks and gardens of significant historical and scientific value standing out, inviting moments of contemplation and ennobling Coimbra's history and heritage.

The city currently has the magnificent Convento São Francisco, a municipal facility of excellence, which, due to its size, the latest technological generation of its equipment and the vision of its artistic programming, plays an important role in the development of the territory. The center of innovative artistic programming, this emblematic city space is also the epicentre of the mobilization of the city's economic sectors.

In the city of Coimbra, the traditional tascas are still very much alive and well and in them you can find the most varied snacks: such as gizzards, bones, woodpeckers, raia de pitau and many other delicacies, accompanied by a good wine from the farmer. In the restaurants, typical dishes such as Chanfana, Leitão da Bairrada or Arroz de Lampreia stand out. The sweets have deep roots, largely due to the influence of the various convents and monasteries that once existed in the city. Examples of this are the Pastéis de Santa Clara or the Arrufadas, a cake with a seal of regional certification.

Today, Coimbra is a dynamic hub of the Central Region. Its social, historical and heritage context, combined with a cultural offer of recognized quality, reflect the continuous process of change that marks its Candidacy for European Capital of Culture in 2027.
