Museu de Mertola is an archaeological museum complex in Mertola, Portugal. Mertola has three main museum sites.The Roman museum is in the Town Hall building and includes a part reconstructed villa from the 3rd and 4th century and a collection of mosaics with strong Byzantine influence depicting mythological and other scenes. There are also finds from Roman premises that were used for living but also as guest houses , which can be explained by the proximity to the Roman harbour. The Islamic collection is an archive of ceramic objects . The paleo-Christian site includes a Roman cryptoporticus and a 6th-century baptistery.Other finds include Roman funerary art from the Roman and late Roman period excavated from beneath a small chapel dedicated to Saint Sebastian built in the 16th century.
