The baths, of Roman origin, began to be built in the first half of the 1st century, with a large outdoor pool having been built during the Flavian dynasty.
Probably during the reign of Trajan, the original building was demolished, and new baths were built within the perimeter of the old building, having the great portico with Ionic columns and capitals been readapted. A square was built on the eastern side of the building, with a second portico of Tuscan style and buildings meant to house the bathers, in addition to the tabernae.
Fully operational in the 4th century, the area remained occupied in the centuries that followed, and a pre-Romanesque chapel was built at the eastern top of this square in the late 9th century / first quarter of the 10th century, of which the foundations have been found.
Known and preserved since the Middle Ages for having treated King Afonso Henriques after the disaster of Badajoz, the building was restored and adapted by Manuel I of Portugal, who established a Royal Hospital there, enlarged during the reign of Peter II of Portugal. It continued in use until the end of the 19th century, when the new Bathhouse was built and visited by Queen Amélia.
the framework of a project coordinated by Fátima Abraços. This project aims to survey and analyse the Roman
mosaics belonging to the Conuentus Bracaraugustanus, whose capital city was Bracara Augusta.
The Villa, in the parish of Sendim, Felgueiras, Porto, is part of the mentioned Conuentus. Its excavation began
in 1992, with the uncovering of several compartments of a domus and of structures belonging to the balnea.
Later, the musealisation of the archaeological site was carried out with the conservation in situ of the mosaic
fragments found in a cubiculum.
The collected archaeological material established the occupation of the Villa between the 1st and 6th centuries
AD. It also ascertained that the domus had a phase of restructuring and expansion between the end of the 3rd
century and the end of the 4th century. This would correspond to the completion of the analysed mosaic

O Tesouro de Paradela-Sequeiro Longo (Cinfães) foi encontrado em 1997 numa intervenção arqueológica de emergência que revelou um nível de ocupação romana; deste depósito resta um conjunto de 23 moedas com cronologias que vão dos finais do século III aos finais do século IV, tendo sido provavelmente escondido nos inícios do século V.

The deposit includes 23 bronze coins dated from the late third-century AD to the end of the fourth-century and it was probably hidden in the beginnings of the fifth century AD.
