Description Idanha-a-Nova

Idanha-a-Nova is a Portuguese village in the district of Castelo Branco, statistical region of the Center and sub-region of Beira Baixa, part of the traditional province with the same name, with about 2,100 inhabitants.

It is the seat of the fourth most extensive municipality in Portugal, with 1 416.34 km² in area, but with only 9 716 inhabitants (2011), subdivided into 13 parishes. The municipality is limited to the north by the municipality of Penamacor, to the east and south by Spain, to the west by Castelo Branco and to the northwest by Fundão.

On December 11, 2015 UNESCO considered Idanha-a-Nova as a City of Music, as part of the Creative Cities Network program.

It is in the field that our virtue and inspiration reside. As such, quality of life remains our greatest asset.

An area of ??the country historically chosen for the settlement of several European peoples, Idanha-a-Nova presents in its vast territory, spread over 1,416 km2, unique conditions for the sustained development of the region.

Idanha is a place where tradition and modernity coexist peacefully. Alongside the cultural heritage of Monsanto, the historic heritage of Idanha-a-Velha or even prehistoric of Penha Garcia, towns and villages emerge with modern infrastructure and innovation.

Today, Idanha is an accessible and equidistant location from the three most important centers of the Iberian Peninsula: Lisbon, Porto and Madrid and has a road network ready to satisfy the needs of any inhabitant, investor or tourist who seeks us.

It is from the land that our identity comes from and that is where our inspiration and strength to grow come from. Thus, we combine the innovation of those who have roots here and those who want to create them with a unique intimacy with nature.
