Citania de Briteiros

Reviewed By ottawahound

About 10 km past Bom Jesus on the winding N309 heading southeast from Braga towards Guimarães, Citânia de Briteiros makes for a fascinating visit of a well-developed civilization from the Iron Age, one which the Romans chose to not attempt to conquer. The visitor centre provides a good self-guided tour map. One of the final stops that should not to be missed is the ruins of a public bath, discovered during road construction in the 1930s. Artifacts from the site are on display both at the Museu Da Cultura Castreja in the village of Briteiros and at the Martins Sarmento Society Archaeological Museum in Guimarães.
