Summary

[edit]
Description

Conhecido como aqueduto da Usseira, uma vez que é ali o seu início, veio revolucionar o sistema de abastecimento de água à vila de Óbidos. Mandado edificar pela Rainha D. Catarina de Áustria, esposa de D.João III, em 1573, possivelmente veio a ser finalizado já no reinado de Filipe I.

Com a sua origem numa nascente de Usseira, finaliza no Chafariz Real da Praça de Santa Maria de Óbidos, perfazendo um total de seis quilómetros, três dos quais subterrâneos. O aqueduto é formado por três troços com apenas um registo, em que as arcadas são constituídas em arcos de volta perfeita, sendo em ponta quebrada na passagem das vias, reforçadas a espaços regulares por pegões.

Esta estrutura sofreu obras de restauração em 1611 e 1622. Neste ano a fonte também sofreu restauros, terminando com os últimos restauros em 1717. <a href="https://www.visitarportugal.pt/leiria/obidos/obidos/aqueduto" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.visitarportugal.pt/leiria/obidos/obidos/aqueduto</a>
