The 1385 Battle of Aljubarrota, a decisive engagement in Portuguese history, took place near this pocket-sized parish in the municipality of Alcobaça, in western Portugal. The central core has a modest café and restaurant scene, and the wider region holds several UNESCO World Heritage sites within reach.
