In Chaves, thermalism becomes more and more prominent, bringing thousands of visitors annually to the region.

Diving into Flaviense Thermal Water is, without a doubt, diving into a millenary history that dates back to when the Roman Empire dominated the Iberian Peninsula. The unique characteristics of this resource were discovered between the 1st and 3rd centuries by people who quickly recognized the power of the “Healing Water”.

The region in which Chaves is located has seen the thermal qualities of its waters confirmed by several civilizations. The Museu das Termas Romanas, the most significant Roman Thermal Spa in the Iberian Peninsula and the most important Portuguese Roman Thermal complex, is such an example. A National Monument since December 2012, the Museum preserves a magnificent discovery, revealing 2000 years of history and enhancing the city of “Aquae Flaviae”.

But the thermal wealth does not stop here: the Termas de Chaves and the Balneário Pedagógico de Vidago, both in operation, confirm the municipality as a mandatory stop for all those seeking health and well-being.

At Termas de Chaves, in Largo do Tabolado, you will find a wide range of treatment and relaxation services, taking advantage of the hyperthermal “flaviense" water. It is indicated to stimulate metabolic and organic functions due to its mineralization and to prevent and treat musculoskeletal, digestive and respiratory pathologies.
