"A Marinha Santiago da Fonte, com produção de sal por método artesanal, foi adquirida pela Universidade de Aveiro em 1993. No âmbito do projecto Interreg IIIB Sal do Atlântico (2004-2007), esta marinha foi objecto de intervenções diversificadas: reabilitação do armazém (no âmbito do processo de certificação do produto), recuperação dos muros com experimentação de novos materiais, criação da imagem gráfica da marinha. Por último a certificação da safra de 2009. As intervenções efectuadas permitiram adaptar a marinha para novas funcionalidades, nomeadamente para o desenvolvimento de actividades de investigação e divulgação científica."
