Overlooking the River Tagus, Alcantara is today a parish with an area of 4.39 km² and a population of 13,911 residents. The parish was established on 8 April 1770 under the name of S. Pedro in Alcantara, as it replaced the former parish of S. Pedro in Alfama. Often associated with the Arabic term Al-quantara, meaning 'the bridge', the name refers to the existence of a now-lost bridge over the Alcantara stream.
Characterised by hills and valleys, Alcantara once benefited from rich natural resources along its stream and fertile lands that supported a thriving and diverse agriculture. The area boasted market gardens in the alluvial valleys, vineyards, cereal production, and limestone quarries with lime kilns. These natural advantages led to early, though scattered, settlement during the Muslim occupation. However, true urban development only began in the 18th century, coinciding with the parish's formal establishment.
The industrial buildings that emerged in the late 19th century and played a significant role in Alcantara's daily life during the early decades of the 20th century were eventually abandoned. The process of industrialisation that shaped Alcantara in the second half of the 19th century gave way, a hundred years later, to deindustrialisation and a profound social transformation. Today, many of those former industrial buildings have been converted into residential and commercial spaces.
