This Marian shrine owes its name to the oppidum, a town-like settlement, that existed here and was of strategic importance in the process of Christian reconquest. It is said that it was founded by D.Alfonso Henriques in gratitude after the castle was conquered from the Moors. From up here you can enjoy a magnificent view of the city of Coruche, the Soraia River and the lands beyond.
