Passage through the place
Occupied since Roman times, it also had an Arab presence. It has a castle and in the 14th century it became the seat of the Duchy of Braganza, which eventually gave rise to the Braganza Dynasty. As a result, the town lost its splendor and ended up becoming a holiday resort for the royal family.
