Located in the parish of Seda, in the heart of the Alentejo, the ruins of the walls that surrounded the ancient castle of Seda remain determined to preserve their ancient history. Without official evidence, some studies point to the existence of a castro of the Lusitanian tribe, occupied by Roman troops who would have erected a fortification there. The Roman presence in the region is well-known, and easily attested to by the Vila Formosa Bridge (1st and 2nd centuries), milestones, and the military road that would have connected Lisbon to Mérida. In 1160, King Afonso Henriques conquered the village, which at the time was called Arminho, from the Moors and donated the fortification to the Templars. This is the date that marked the beginning of the village's original enclosure. During the reign of King Afonso III, the village was handed over to the Order of Aviz and was later elevated to the status of a town, even serving as the municipal seat until 1836. The castle, however, gradually lost importance, and only a section of medieval wall, reinforced with turrets, has survived to this day. It has been classified as a Property of Public Interest since 1982.

Mural in homage to the Alter Real Initially called Alter-do-chão, but later its name was changed to Alter-Real, the breed is descended from Andalusian horses brought from Spain. Between 1809 and 1810, the breed was threatened during the Napoleonic invasions, when General Junot's French troops stole the best specimens of the breed. Crossbreeding with Thoroughbreds and Arabians weakened the breed, causing a great loss of its racial character, with 12 pure Zapata mares of the breed remaining. They were saved from extinction through the importation of three Andalusian stallions in 1992 directly from Jerez de la Frontera in Spain. At the end of the 20th century, measures were taken to restore the Alter-Real to its former characteristics and its best use in the modern world, in addition to its preservation. Today, the reproduction of the Alter-Real is controlled by the Portuguese Ministry of Agriculture and its use is in Equestrianism and Dressage and it participated in the formation of the Brazilian Manga-Larga Paulista and Manga-Larga Marchador horses at the beginning of the 19th century.
