CERRO DA VILA
Small museum in Vilamoura, with ceramics and mosaics, offering tours of a large part of the Cerro da Vila ruins.
Although the Vilamoura region has been inhabited since ancient times, as evidenced by the discovery of Bronze Age tombs, it was the Romans who occupied Cerro da Vila between the 1st and 11th centuries. Many of the ruins can be visited: a noble house, public baths, tanks for salting fish, a port area... Garum, a preserved fish, was exported throughout the Roman Empire. A small museum displays ceramics and mosaics, living testimony to the Roman presence in this region.
