Anadia is a Portuguese city belonging to the District of Aveiro, Center region and sub-region Region of Aveiro, with about 6 000 inhabitants. Anadia is located approximately halfway between the cities of Aveiro and Coimbra.

Located in the Bairrada Wine Region, the municipality of Anadia is closely linked to wine production, with the Bairrada Vitivinicultural Station and the Wine Museum.

Anadia has a vast Heritage that deserves to be visited, from Palaces, Churches, Chapels, Sanctuary, Manor houses ...

The population of the municipality is poorly documented for periods prior to the Roman rule: some vestiges allegedly belonging to the Paleolithic (Monte Crasto - Anadia, Carvalhais and Vila Nova de Monsarros), the Neolithic (Moita) and the Iron Age still lack proof (Monte Crasto - Anadia). "

But the testimonies of the Roman presence in these lands are, yes, unequivocal and have been detected all over the area of ??the municipality: Aguim, Avelãs de Caminho, Avelãs de Cima, Mogofores, Moita, Óis do Bairro, São Lourenço do Bairro, Vila Nova de Monsarros, Vilarinho do Bairro and, especially, in Anadia (Monte Crasto) and Sangalhos.

In addition to the numerous traces of domestic roofing ceramics, it is imperative to refer to the road that connected Olissipo (Lisbon) to Cale (Porto), and which traveled this region, in a route that continues to raise new investigations and theories.
