Conimbriga Ruins, Roman archaeological site and museum in Condeixa-a-Velha e Condeixa-a-Nova, Portugal
The excavated settlement features a 1,500-meter stone wall enclosure containing a forum, basilica, thermal baths, houses, and commercial structures on a triangular plateau.
Romans arrived in 139 BCE during Decimus Junius Brutus campaigns, and the city gained municipal status under Emperor Vespasian between 69 and 79 CE.
The House of Fountains displays intricate floor mosaics depicting hunting scenes with dogs and Bacchus, representing Roman domestic architectural sophistication.
The archaeological complex includes a museum inaugurated in 1962, which exhibits artifacts documenting the site's evolution from late second millennium BCE to sixth century CE.
Engineers designed an advanced network of stone heating ducts under the floors of Roman baths, demonstrating the technical capabilities of ancient thermal systems.
