When war becomes art
Why locals love it
An old weapons factory (the apple of the eye was a submachine gun of 9mm) whose peak production was at the same time than the colonial war. Then the building was abandoned, to become today a cultural space. Nowadays, instead of gunpowder, you can find books.
Why you should visit it
How can someone define Fábrica de Braço de Prata? It’s indefinable. You have dinning rooms, bar, bookshops, movie studio, concert halls, art galleries, workshops, exhibitions and other cultural events. A place where ideas are discussed and art is created, functioning as a democratic and open space.
Special tip
With more than 10 rooms, you will probably find something interesting to do.
