La Fuente del Ídolo es un peculiar monumento edificado a las afueras de Bracara Augusta que muestra la romanización de las poblaciones indígenas conquistadas por Roma. Probablemente sobre un santuario anterior, la fuente fue monumentalizada por Celico Fronto en el siglo I d. C. En la piedra fueron esculpidas una figura togada, a la izquierda, y, a la derecha, en una edícula con frontón triangular, un busto masculino. Son cuatro las inscripciones grabadas en la roca, dos de las cuales dan el nombre de Celico Fronto, natural de Arcóbriga –que estaría al sur de Lusitania–, dando otra el nombre de Tongo Nabiago, divinidad asociada a Nabia, diosa de la fecundidad habitualmente –como aquí– relacionada con el agua. Entre 2001 y 2004 se hicieron unos importantes trabajos de musealización que permiten su visita, contextualizando el monumento. Por apenas 2 € bien merece la...

It's a very small museum. There's a video explaining some of the history. I think they could do way more with museum.

Apparently there is a combo ticket with the baths which they only told me after I already visited them. The price of 1,90 for non students/teachers is a little bit...

There is ONLY the ruins of the fountain and literally nothing more. If you are interested in archeology, it makes sense going there because there is a video showing the results of the excavations. It was nice to see it but I don't think it was worth paying for, even if it was a small fee...
