    The Boitaca Bridge began to be built in 1862, during the reign of King Luís I, as attested by the inscription on a tombstone placed there. Its name derives from the former owner of the land, the French master Diogo Boitaca or Boytac. Crossing a branch of the River Lena, which runs through the parish of Batalhão, it was part of an old royal route that connected Lisbon to Porto.

    The bridge, in revivalist and neo-Gothic style and tinged with yellow, is defined by a flat deck over six pointed arches, surrounded by buttresses, on which rise pinnacles. Between these elements, and contributing even more to the Gothic air of the monument, is the stone fence with quatrefoils.
