Evora's Aqueduct of Silver Water: A Testament to Portugal's Rich History This image showcases the Aqueduct of Silver Water in Evora, Portugal, an architectural marvel built during the 16th century. Constructed between 1531 and 1537 under the reign of King Joao III, this magnificent structure was designed by the military architect Francisco de Arruda. The Aqueduct of Silver Water, also known as the Agua de Prata Aqueduct, was a crucial engineering feat that supplied water to the historic city of Evora, located in the Alentejo region of the Iberian Peninsula. Its name derives from the silvery reflection of the sun on the water as it flowed through the arches, creating a stunning visual effect. Francisco de Arruda, a skilled military engineer, designed the aqueduct with elegant arches, each one unique in shape and size, to ensure the efficient transfer of water from the nearby source to the city. The exterior of the arches displays intricate details, showcasing the civic art and architectural prowess of the Portuguese during the 16th century. The Aqueduct of Silver Water is a testament to Portugal's rich history and its ability to blend functionality with aesthetics. This European marvel, with its enduring allure, continues to captivate visitors and historians alike, offering a glimpse into the past and the country's deep-rooted cultural heritage.
