More Information about Alcochete:
Alcochete is a Portuguese town and the seat of the municipality of Alcochete, which belongs to the District of Setúbal, itself part of the Lisbon Metropolitan Area. The municipality is divided into 3 parishes.
The municipality is bordered to the north by Benavente, to the east and southeast by Palmela, to the southwest by the main area of Montijo, and to the northwest by the Tagus estuary, located in the former province of Estremadura.
Alcochete is home to the Tagus Estuary Natural Reserve, featuring numerous salt pans where various species of water birds nest.
Despite the name, the Alcochete Shooting Range is located in the municipality of Benavente, near Porto Alto and Samora Correia.
King D. Manuel I was born in Alcochete in 1469.
History It is believed that Alcochete has Arab origins, mainly due to two facts: the origin of the name Al caxete, which may mean ”the oven,” and the location of the Main Church, built in the 14th century and, according to tradition, constructed over an Arab temple.
However, the first documented human occupation refers to the Roman presence, evidenced by findings of a pottery center where amphorae and other containers for food storage and transport were made. The Roman occupation was followed by the Arab occupation, with the toponym being the most visible legacy. They developed agriculture in the region, including irrigation systems and citrus cultivation.
With the Christian reconquest, Alcochete was integrated into the Order of Santiago’s territory, and during this time, salt extraction developed, with salt exported by sea to South America.

The frequent plagues (e.g., the Black Death) in the kingdom’s capital led the royalty and nobility of the 14th and 15th centuries to settle in Alcochete, including King D. João I (late 14th century) and Infante D. Fernando, Duke of Beja (mid-15th century). The Infante D. Manuel, later king, was born in Alcochete in 1469.
On January 17, 1515, Alcochete received a charter granted by King D. Manuel I, in a joint diploma that renewed the charter of Aldeia Galega do Ribatejo (from 1514) and confirmed the town status Alcochete had acquired during the 15th century.
This period of prosperity saw the reconstruction of the Main Church and the sacred paintings in the Chapel of Our Lady of Life and the Church of Mercy.
From the 16th to the 19th centuries, agriculture and cattle raising, especially fighting bulls, developed in the municipality. The Rattons (Jácome Ratton) settled in the town, and salt extraction and maritime transport across the Tagus flourished.

Politically, the trends of the last quarter of the 19th century, with intense centralist and decentralist municipal movements, led to the loss of Alcochete’s municipal autonomy in favor of Aldeia Galega (now Montijo) and, on January 15, 1898, the restoration of that autonomy.
The 20th-century history of Alcochete is one of human heroism, resistance to the Estado Novo regime, strikes, imprisonments, but also stagnation and near disappearance, although from the 1960s some industries (aluminum foil, tires, etc.) were established in Alcochete.
