The young people of this place grow up hearing the elders talk about a landscape and a village they have never seen: the streets, the houses, the neighborhood, and the life by the Guadiana River, a familiar place for leisure and also a source of livelihood. ‘It was a different water,’ flowing and with steep banks. Today there is a huge lake, riverside villages, and tourists who seek to enjoy the water and the region’s heritage.
The memories of Luz and Guadiana are recent memories for many, but for those who were born 10 years ago, they are like improbable fantasies. The encounter between the ‘myth’ and reality in the territory of Luz is the working tool of the Luz Museum with the school communities, through experiences in the museum and its unique surroundings.
