A few topics about the history of Pvoa de Varzim

The history of Pvoa de Varzim precedes the foundation of Portugal and it is the

result of many influences of Southern and Northern Europe, from the Mediterraneanto the Baltic Sea. The city was established as a roman villa named Villa Euracini

whose economy was based on fish canning industry.

In the middle ages the name Villa Euracini had already evolved into Veracin and had

become na important fishing port, and its control was played by nobles

headquartered in the village named Veracin of Cavaleyros (Varzim knights). Thus D.

Dinis (king of Portugal) passed a foral and ordered the creation of a Pvoa in 1308.Later on, after the feudal and royal control imposes on the metropolis the domain of

the church, through the Santa Clara Monastery, unlike other counties of the kingdom

had their development hampered, leading to a new foral in 1514 by king of D. manuel

I and only then the community has had sufficient autonomy to be able to prosper and

dominate culturally and demographically the surrounding region. The 18th century is

seen as the golden age for the urban development of Pvoa de Varzim. It is in this

century that the fishing community thrives and begins the tradition of sea bathing,

leading the town-city to take the cosmopolitan trait in the 19th century, during the

Belle Epoque.
