Portas do Meio (midtport) - Valença

Description

De Portas do Meio er porten langs hvor du går ind i landsbyen.

Den nye fæstning, der i det 18. århundrede blev etableret gennem ombygninger og udvidelser, blev opdelt i to områder, som den dag i dag stadig adskiller sig markant fra hinanden, forbundet af Porta do Meio.

I nord ligger området kaldet “ Magistral ” eller “ Villa ”, stort set rektangulært, som dækker den gamle middelalderkerne, hvor størstedelen af befolkningen og de vigtigste sociale og administrative faciliteter var koncentreret. Det består af syv bastioner og tre raveliner.

I syd ligger området “ Coroada ”, et mindre område, men næsten ubebygget. Det består af tre bastioner og to raveliner.

På trods af alt dette - principielt - uindtagelige fæstning bygget i det 18. århundrede, blev Valença under krigen på halvøen angrebet og faldt i 1809 i hænderne på de napoleonske tropper.
