Human line in the area of contemporary Águeda dates back to the Bronze Age.
In IX century, Águeda was a prosperous borough, with strong commerce and an actively working port that supported local and regional businesses. In this period the settlement was referred to as Ágata.
During the Middle Ages, Águeda was considered regal lands and dominions of the monasteries of Lorvão and Vacariça. It functioned as an ancillary centre.
A new phase of settlement occurred after the establishment of the Kingdom of Portugal, from the XI-XII century. The inhabitants of Águeda prospered and had many privileges.
Since 1834 Águeda has been a municipal seat. It happened as a consequence of the Portuguese Liberal Revolution, when major administrative reforms were initiated.
The strategic politico-military position allowed Águeda to support military troops during the second French Invasion. In this period, the municipality served as military hospital.
As consequence of the administrative reform, Águeda began its political career in the shadow of great change, and many of its citizens were important land reformers. Águeda Municipality was established on 31 December 1853.
As a frontier city situated in the middle between sea and land, Águeda had a privileged position, serviced by both railroads and an expanding road network. These allowed the economic and social development of the region. Águeda was elevated to the category of city by law on 14 August 1985.
