Cabo da Roca
Cabo da Roca (Cape Roca) is a cape which forms the westernmost extent of mainland Portugal and continental Europe (and by definition the Eurasian land mass). The cape is in the Portuguese municipality of Sintra, west of the district of Lisbon, forming the westernmost extent of the Serra de Sintra.
Battle of Cap de la Roque
The Battle of Cap de la Roque was a naval battle that took place on May 22, 1703 between a Dutch convoy protected by captain Roemer Vlack and a French squadron under Alain Emmanuel de Coëtlogon, during the War of the Spanish Succession. During this war the French and Spanish fleet could not face the English and Dutch in an open sea battle and therefore had switched to privateering. The allies were thus forced to protect their merchant convoys.
Almoçageme
Almoçageme is a village on the Portuguese municipality of Sintra and in the Freguesia of Colares. The name Almoçageme is obviously Arab in origin – the Iberian peninsula is packed with Muslim toponyms that are a legacy of the five hundred years the Moors stayed over. One possible root is from al-masjid or al-mesijide, meaning “the mosque” – although there are no testimonies of one having been around.
Roman villa of Santo André de Almoçageme
In Santo André de Almoçageme, Sintra, is located the westernmost villa of the Roman Empire with occupation from the second to the sixth centuries AD. Excavations exposed a large area of the main house – pars urbana – in which several rooms with mosaic pavements exist north of the peristyle. An area of the pars rustica was also excavated.
Archaeological Site of Alto da Vigia
The Archaeological Site of Alto da Vigia is a set of Roman and 16th century ruins located in the Portuguese municipality of Sintra, near Praia das Maçãs. The oldest accounts of a Roman sanctuary to the Sun, Moon and Imperial cult, by the mouth of the river of Colares dates back to the 16th century. It was a circular temenos, an open air religious space.
