Planet Cork
DISCOVER THE WORLD OF CORK
The cork museum is one of the most sought-after by families, as it is very educational but also interactive. You will be greeted by a replica of a giant cork oak tree and by the sounds and images of the ecosystem surrounding it. Embrace Nature, understand the magic behind this 100% sustainable material, and take pride: Portugal is the largest producer of cork on the planet.
At Planet Cork, you will see how cork oaks are harvested and how the huge cork planks are transformed into wine and sparkling wine corks. We thus move from the countryside environment to the factory environment, and then review all the applications of cork in our daily lives, taking us on a journey through world architecture, interior design, NASA rockets, and McNamara's surfboard. The discoveries are numerous, sometimes even unexpected and often fun. In the end, the conclusion will be only one: cork is a wonderful world.
