PO.RO.S – Roman Portugal Museum in Sicó is the newest museum of Condeixa municipality. It consists of a cultural project integrated in the Roman legacy tour. As a multimedia and virtual space, it works in combination with Conímbriga (closed on mondays).

Inhabited since pre-Historic times, Conímbriga was occupied by Roman troops in 139 BC and it became the prosperous capital city of the Lusitania province. In the next century, during the reign of Emperor Augustus, the urban part of the city grew. It was during this period that some of the most important buildings for everyday life in a Roman city were build such as the forum, the amphitheatre and the thermal baths. Later, a three-nave basilica was built in the town’s centre. You can also visit the Museum where several rooms will take you to everyday life at this Roman city through objects discovered after many years of excavations, its religious life, architecture manor houses and their decoration and even life at the forum.
