The magnificent entrance portico of the Igreja de Santa Maria da Vitória is unique in the history of Portuguese art, a work by the Master Huguet (1402–1438). It features an elaborate iconographic ensemble comparable only to the great porticoes of European cathedrals: six apostles on each side, virgins, martyrs, popes, monks, angel figures, God, and the four evangelists...

After the revolution of 1383, Portugal found itself in a difficult conflict with the neighboring Kingdom of Castile. The battle was decided in 1385 when the Castilian and Portuguese armies clashed at the Battle of Aljubarrota. The Castilians outnumbered and were better armed. As a military leader, Nuno Álvares Pereira loyally stood by his patron, John of Avis. The Portuguese achieved a resounding victory, which is attributed in particular to the strategic genius of Nuno Álvares Pereira. With this victory, the Castilian claims to Portugal were permanently repelled. John of Avis was proclaimed king by the Cortes, as John I of Portugal, thus establishing the second Portuguese dynasty, the House of Avis. Nuno Álvares Pereira became a national hero, and the grateful king showered him with honors and material possessions.

Construction started on it in 1593 by Italian architect Filippo Terzi and ended in 1613. The aqueduct is nearly 6 km long (3.7 miles) and for centuries remained the most important source of water to the monks who lived in the Convento de Cristo. Most tourists will actually be surprised to find such a huge structure in a small city like Tomar.

The plastic mould industry began in 1943 in Marinha Grande, in a small glass mould company, on the initiative of Aníbal H. Abrantes, but without the consent of his partner and brother Aires Roque, who therefore sold his position in the company and continued his activity in the glass industry. Two years later, Abrantes produced the first injection mould for plastic. The industry developed with the import of foreign technology and, in 1955, exports began with the sale of the first moulds to Great Britain. By 1980, the industry was already exporting to more than 50 countries and in the Marinha Grande area alone there were 54 companies operating, employing around 2,000 people.
