Casa_dos_Poveiros
Casa dos Poveiros (Home or House of Povoans) is the name given to regionalist voluntary associations of Portuguese settlers or immigrants from Póvoa de Varzim, for community meeting and the promotion of the culture of Póvoa de Varzim.
The establishment of a proper association apart from other Portuguese associations was due to regional cultural differences. Casa dos Poveiros included people from the municipalities of Póvoa de Varzim, but also related or derived communities from the municipalities of Vila do Conde and Esposende.
