Alcácer is one of the oldest cities in Europe with history that dates back to 1000 B.C. Initially occupied by the Phoenicians due to its fertile lands, its diverse fishing grounds and even its central location to Europe and Africa. Later on, Alcácer shifted towards a Roman village and after that a Mourish town until the 12th century when King Afonso Henriques conquered it from the Mours.
