About Almada

Almada is a metropolis and a municipality in Portugal, positioned on the southern margin of the Tagus River, on the alternative side of the river from Lisbon. The two cities are connected by means of the 25 de Abril Bridge. The populace in 2011 became 174,030, in an area of 70.21 km². The urbanized middle had a population of 101,500 in 2001. Human presence inside the area of Almada dates to the give up of the Neolithic duration approximately 5000 years ago; archeological excavations completed in the municipality endorse that non-sedentary nomadic tribes may have occupied this location sporadically.

The gradual development of settlement right here made its greatest boost with the coming of Islamic civilization, when Muslims built a castle at Almada to defend and screen the entrance to the Tagus River. Lying across the river from Lisbon, the area of Almada was a crossroads for a succession of diverse peoples who traded alongside the Tagus, consisting of Phoenicians, Romans and Moors.
