El Rincón Cunqueiru is a workshop in which we can still get to know the ancient profession of “Cunqueiru” that consist of making wooden bowls using an old pedal lathe.
The details and history of the profession will be explained in a guided tour that includes the chance to see the lathe working. To finish, a local wine will be tasted in a wooden “cacho” (bowl).
In the shop, the visitor will be able to buy mainly handmade wooden objects but there are also some other typical local products.
