In Formigueiro, the water also enters the history of the houses. The municipal portrait highlights the Casa da Martins: arch doors and windows and, inside, pipes and sinks dug into the wall to circulate the water.
The village of Rio Douro still keeps the memory of the weaving. Blankets, quilts, towels and blankets of wool, linen and rags followed to the fairs of São Miguel, in Cabeceiras, and Santa Luzia, in Arco de Baúlhe. They are clues to know old works of the mountains; they do not confirm current workshops or access to the interior of the house.
