The meeting point for the Workshops, Masterclasses, and Doctoral Colloquium will be at Portagem (see below), from 8h50 to 9h15, when a student volunteer will guide you to your room. Coffee-breaks will be provided in each of the rooms. Lunch will be at Liga dos Combatentes (see below) and again your student volunteer will guide you there and back.
Portagem – Meeting Point
In the past, the crossing point for those who made the connection between the North and the South, is now the main and central point of the city. This square, which initially had different names from the current one, such as Largo Príncipe Dom Carlos and Largo Miguel Bombarda, began to be used to collect taxes on goods that passed through the city.
