## Nuremberg’s links with Brazil, Portugal and Angola

### Exchange through people and art

Nuremberg’s relationship with Brazil includes a connection between congregations. [St. Johannis parish](https://www.st-johannis-nuernberg.de/gemeindeleben/fuer-kinder/brasilia) dates its partnership with an Evangelical Lutheran congregation in Brasília to 2003. Its account describes reciprocal visits and a youth exchange begun in 2011, with young people travelling to Brasília and their Brazilian counterparts visiting Nuremberg. This gives a conversation about the two cities a concrete starting point: how people welcome visitors, introduce their families and explain daily life at home.

In Langwasser, a different exchange took shape on a wall. [Ponte Cultura’s account of its 2023 street-art project](https://www.pontecultura.de/home/ponte-cultura-street-art-in-langwasser-somos-um/) describes four Brazilian artists from Fortaleza working with four German artists on a 45-metre garage wall. The theme, “Chico da Silva meets Dürer,” brought the Brazilian artist and Nuremberg’s Albrecht Dürer into an imagined dialogue. The project photographs offer an optional exercise in describing colours, shapes and contrasts in Portuguese, while keeping the individual artists and their different backgrounds in view.

### A museum object with a Portuguese history

The [Germanisches Nationalmuseum’s catalogue of the Behaim globe](https://objektkatalog.gnm.de/wisski/navigate/4516/view) connects Nuremberg to Portugal much earlier. Made in Nuremberg in 1492-1494, the globe drew on the knowledge of Martin Behaim, a Nuremberg merchant who spent much of his life in Portugal. The catalogue explains the contribution of Portuguese charts to its depiction of Africa’s west coast. It also discusses early colonialism and the globe’s Eurocentric images of rulers. Reading the object through these different perspectives opens questions about maps, trade and power alongside geographical vocabulary.

### Music to explore, and language to read

Portugal’s contemporary music appears in the city’s festival archive. The [2023 Bardentreffen programme for Maro](https://bardentreffen.nuernberg.de/bands/maro) listed a concert at St. Katharina on 22 July and introduced her pop compositions with folk and world-music influences. It also highlighted “Saudade, saudade,” offering a specific song to investigate rather than treating Portuguese music as a single genre.

Angola has a separate place in Nuremberg’s cultural programming. The [2024 Afrikatage programme](https://www.cph-nuernberg.de/bilder/Veranstaltungen/PDFs/2022_01-06/AKWABA_Flyer2024.pdf) scheduled João Dontana Bio at the Caritas-Pirckheimer-Haus. It described his songwriting as addressing everyday life and social and cultural conditions in his home country, Angola. That programme is a useful reminder to approach Angolan artists through their own subjects and musical work.

For a connection between movement and listening, [Capoeira de Ouro Bayern](https://www.cdouro-bayern.de/) lists training for children and adults at Nuremberg’s Regenbogenschule. Its explanation of capoeira brings together physical practice, Afro-Brazilian history, instruments and songs sung collectively in Portuguese. The musical side gives a reason to listen for repeated words and the relationship between a sung phrase and its rhythm; anyone considering participation can check the group’s current arrangements directly.

Reading can continue between these discoveries. The [Stadtbibliothek Zentrum’s international collections](https://www.nuernberg.de/internet/stadtbibliothek/interkulturell.html) include Portuguese-language media, and the library explains how to search by language through the catalogue’s advanced search and “Interessenkreis” field. As optional self-study, choose a short passage at a comfortable level, collect three useful expressions and write a few sentences about one Nuremberg connection that interests you.
