Editorial Project Archibishops of Braga (2nd Group) - Set

The “Archbishops of Braga” stamp issue had its philatelic beginningsin 2017, with the release of the rst six stamps, on the commemorationday of the Sacerdotal Golden Jubilee of His Excellency the Most Reverend Jorge Ferreira da Costa Ortiga, Archbishop of Braga and Primate of the Spains, who honoured us with his presence and seal. Raul Moreira, Director of Philately of the CTT – Correios de Portugal,provided historical and cultural context for the o cial presentation.As previously mentioned, the idea of the stamp collection originated in the editorial project of a book, with the same title, developed in parallel to the emission of an estimated eighteen stamps. It will be a synthesis of the Episcopal Fasti of the Archdiocese of Braga – a cultural initiative of the Archdiocesan Commission for Patrimonial Assets – CABP, integrated into the scope of the work of the Institute of History and Christian Arts – IHAC.
