    Forte da Archeira, part of the Lines of Towers defensive north of Lisbon during the Peninsular War, is a military fortification located at an altitude of 345 m. It was part of the 1st Defensive Line with the forts of Catefica and Feiteira. Despite not having gunboats, it has traces of a magazine. It forms part of the Lines of Torres, a system of 152 fortifications extending over 80 km, built between 1809 and 1812 to prevent the advance of Napoleonic troops.
