Termas da Sulfúrea sits in Cabeço de Vide, in the Alto Alentejo, drawing on a hyposaline, sulphurous, chlorinated-sodic spring that emerges at around 20°C with an unusually high pH of 11.5. Research by Instituto Superior Técnico de Lisboa dated the water itself to approximately 3,500 years old, and local sources credit Roman-era use likely dating to the time of Augustus. The modern bathhouse traces to an 1855 concession, with major improvements following a 1935 renewal.
Research cited by local authorities dates the water itself to roughly 3,500 years old, with likely Roman-era therapeutic use around the time of Augustus. The modern concession dates to 1855, with significant expansion following a 1935 renewal.
