History

Early history
Évora has a history dating back more than five millennia.

It was known as Ebora by the Celtici, a tribal confederacy, south of the Lusitanians (and of Tagus river), who made the
town their regional capital.

The etymological origin of the name Ebora is from the ancient Celtic word ebora/ebura, plural genitive of the word
eburos (yew), name of a species of tree, so its name means "of the yew trees." The city of York, in northern England, at
the time of the Roman Empire, was called Eboracum/Eburacum, named after the ancient Celtic place name *Eborakon
(Place of Yew Trees), so the old name of York is etymologically related to the city of Évora.[6] Alternative hypotheses
are that the name is derived from oro, aurum, (gold) [7] as the Romans had extensive gold mining in Portugal; or it may

named after ivory workers, but these two hypotheses are much less likely than the first one, because the name Évora has
no relation with gold or with ivory in ancient Celtic, Latin or Portuguese languages or other languages, there is no Country Portugal
etymological ground for these two hypotheses. It may have been capital of the kingdom of [8]

Portugal.

Moorish rule
In 715, the city was conquered by the Moors under Tariq ibn-Ziyad who called it Yaburah ‫ﻳﺎﺑﺮة‬. During the Moorish rule
(715–1165), the town, part of the Taifa of Badajoz, slowly began to prosper again and developed into an agricultural center
with a fortress and a mosque. The present character of the city is evidence of the Moorish influence. During that time, several
notables hailed from Evora, including Abd al-Majid ibn Abdun Al-Yaburi ‫ﻋﺒﺪ اﻟﻤﺠﻴﺪ ﺑﻦ ﻋﺒﺪون اﻟﻴﺎﺑﺮي‬, a poet whose diwan
still survives to this day.[9]

Reconquest
Évora was wrested from the Moors through a surprise attack by Gerald the Fearless (Geraldo Sem Pavor) in September 1165.
The town came under the rule of the Portuguese king Afonso I in 1166. It then flourished as one of the most dynamic cities in
the Kingdom of Portugal during the Middle Ages, especially in the 15th century. The court of the first and second dynasties
resided here for long periods, constructing palaces, monuments and religious buildings. Évora became the scene for many
royal weddings and a site where many important decisions were made.

under the reign of Manuel I and John III, Évora became a major
centre for the humanities (André de Resende - buried in the cathedral)
and artists, such as the sculptor Nicolau Chanterene; the painters Cristóvão de Figueiredo and Gregório Lopes; the
composers Manuel Cardoso and Duarte Lobo; the chronicler Duarte Galvão; and the father of Portuguese drama, Gil
Vicente.

Évora also held a large part of the slave population of Portugal. Nicolas Clenard, a Flemish tutor at the Portuguese
court, exclaimed in 1535 that "In Évora, it was as if I had been carried off to a city in hell: everywhere I only meet
blacks."

The city became the seat of an archbishopric in 1540. The university was founded by the Jesuits in 1559, and it was In the 19th-century, Évora declined in

from Portugal, the university was closed in 1759 by the Marquis of Pombal, and Évora went into decline. The
university was only reopened in 1973.

Recent history
The Battle of Évora was fought on 29 July 1808 during the Peninsular War. An outnumbered Portuguese-Spanish force of 2,500, assisted by poorly armed peasant militiamen,
tried to stop a French-Spanish division commanded by Louis Henri Loison but it was routed. Led by the hated Loison, known as Maneta or One-Hand, the French went on to
storm the town which was defended by soldiers, militiamen and armed townsmen. Breaking into the town, the attackers slaughtered combatants and non-combatants alike
fering only 290 of their own.[10]
before thoroughly pillaging the place. The French inflicted as many as 8,000 casualties while suf

In 1834, Évora was the site of the surrender of the forces of King Miguel I, which marked the end of the Liberal Wars. The many monuments erected by major artists of each
period now testify to Évora's lively cultural and rich artistic and historical heritage. The variety of architectural styles (Romanesque, Gothic, Manueline, Renaissance,
Baroque), the palaces and the picturesque labyrinth of squares and narrow streets of the city centre are all part of the rich heritage of this museum-city

Geography

Physical geography
Évora (altitude 300 m) is situated in Alentejo, a large region of wide plains on the south of Portugal, bordered on the
North by the Tagus River and on the South by the region of Algarve. The city is 140 km (87 mi) from the capital city
Lisbon, and 80 km (50 mi) from Badajoz at the Spanish border. It is the chief city of the region. The seat of the
municipality is the city of Évora, composed by thecivil parishes of Évora (São Mamede, Sé, São Pedro e Santo Antão)
in the historical centre and the urban parishes of Bacelo e Senhora da Saúde and Malagueira e Horta das Figueiras
outside the ancient city walls where most of the population in fact reside. The remaining civil parishes in the

municipality are rural or suburban and do not form part of the city for statistic purposes. The city's historical centre has
about 4,000 buildings and an area of 1.05 km2 (0.41 sq mi).

Climate
Évora has a hot-summer mediterranean climate.[11] As typical of the interior Alentejo, Évora is prone to severe heat extremes with an all-time record of 46 °C (115 °F).[12]
However, the average summer high usually is around 30 °C (86 °F), which is significantly less severe heat than being found in nearby Andalusia, Spain. This is due to low-
scale maritime effects due to the relative proximity to the Atlantic Ocean, which also causes seasonal lag predominantly during the warmer period, with night-time
temperatures being milder in September than June as well as in October compared with May. Frosts in winter are frequent but not usually severe, snow falling only twice a
decade. Mean temperatures throughout winter most often staying below 10 °C (50 °F).

Évora is the chief city of the Alentejo region, and plays a role as an important agricultural and services center. It is home to
several institutions with great importance for the region, like the state-run University of Évora and district hospital. Évora has
tried to develop the aerospace sector, and has been chosen to host the Portuguese Aeronautical Cluster after Brazilian aircraft
manufacturer giant Embraer decided to establish in the city two factories (one of metallic structures and other of composite
structures) for the production of aircraft parts along with its European Engineering Center.[17] The city's aeronautical park,
which includes an aerodrome, is about to receive a number of other investments related to the aeronautical industry, amongst
[18] and Mecachrome.[19]
which the most noteworthy investments are the ones of Lauak

Due to its extensive historical and cultural importance, Évora, as well as the surrounding area, has seen in the past few years a
great increase in the tourism sector, which fomented the creation of many hotels, bed-and-breakfasts and various other styles
of accommodation. Some of its most visited sites include the Roman Temple of Évora, the Chapel of Bones, the Cathedral of
Évora, Évora's Museum and its historical centre.
