Lonely Planet review

The Museu do Teatro Romano, displaying the city's ruined Roman theatre. Built during Emperor Augustus' time, it was extended in AD 57 to seat up to 5000. The theatre was abandoned in the 4th century, and its stones were appropriated to build the city. Not much is left but the museum cleverly recreates the scene.
