History

The origins of the city of Viseu date back to the pre-Roman period, with its name being reconstructed from the indigenous word 'Vissaieigobor' as *Vissaium, perhaps with a latinised suffix. With its Romanisation the settlement gained importance, being at the intersection of a series of Roman roads linking Mérida,

Middle Ages

The origins of Viseu extends to proto-history, when migrating groups settled the territory, including the Celts and Lusitanians. Roman colonists settled in this territories during eras of prosperity and peace, leading eventually to Suebic, Gothic and Muslim cultures. The Suebic peoples, by the middle of the 6th century, had already established a community, with a bishop that existed at the suffrage of Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Braga. With the arrival of North African Muslims, the Visigoths escaped the territory to the distant mountains of Asturias. The lands of Viseu frequently switched hands between the Christians and

The city of Viseu has an almost central position in relation to the District lying on the so-called Viseu Plateau (in Portuguese ''Planalto de Viseu''). It is surrounded by a mountainous system constituted to the north by the Leonil, Montemuro, and Lapa hills, to the northeast by the Arado hills, to the south and southeast by the '' Serra da Estrela'' and the Lousã hills and to the west by the Caramulo hills.

These are found in three basins: the Vouga, the Dão and the Paiva.

Climate

Situated in a zone of transition, the '' concelho'' has several micro-climates. The Serra do Caramulo, located to the west of the city, plays an important role in climatic terms by lessening the influences of the western air masses (although the Mondego River's basin makes the penetration easier). Consequently, Viseu's climate is characterized by the existence of high temperature extremes, with cold and wet winters and hot and dry summers. Viseu has a

Its inland position and relative altitude contributes to cooler winters than in coastal areas of the country, as well as a relatively large diurnal temperature variation as well as lower averages than more low-lying inland cities in the central-north area of the country such as Castelo Branco. In spite of its inland position, the maritime influence is strong enough for there to be a

Winters are much wetter with an average December precipitation of .
