Description
The long-term study of Braga’s urban evolution has contributed to the definition and the characterization of the main urban consolidation phases witnessed by the city since its origin in the Roman period until the present day. The study results have benefited from particular conditions, mainly regarding the variety of available sources that allow the documentation of the successive urban and architectonic transformations and the fact that these key phases marked the overall city development, through the partial or full occupation/reuse of the former urbanized areas. In reality, since its foundation in the late first century B.C., the city’s urban space has been permanently occupied.
