The Moura Archaeological Exhibition is located at Quinta de Santo António da Pipa, in Moura. The space that hosts it is the building of the village's old slaughterhouse, located in this specific area of the municipality.
It is located in an area of Moura that, although not the densest historical center, allows access to this important cultural complex dedicated to local archaeology.
This exhibition allows visitors to discover the valuable findings unearthed in the municipality of Moura. Here, visitors will find a collection of unique pieces, many of which are publicly displayed for the first time.
This collection represents an authentic journey through time, showing traces of thousands of years of human presence in the region. It includes, for example, architectural elements from the Roman and Visigothic periods, fine ceramics from the Islamic period, and metal objects of great archaeological interest.
The abundance of natural resources in the Moura region, such as water, soil fertility, and the presence of metals, were important factors for the prosperity of the communities that settled here over the centuries.
These natural conditions contributed to a long and rich human occupation of the territory, leaving behind a diverse and valuable archaeological heritage, which is now presented in this exhibition.
