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 linked to the Arabic word Al-quantara, meaning 'the bridge', the toponymy immediately refers to the existence of a bridge over the Alcantara stream, now vanished.
With its hills and valleys, Alcantara was historically rich in natural resources along the stream and boasted fertile land, supporting a diverse agricultural economy with market gardens in the alluvial valleys, vineyards, cereals, and limestone quarries with lime kilns. These favourable conditions led to early settlement during the Muslim occupation, albeit in a dispersed manner. However, it was not until the 18th centurycoinciding with the founding of the parishthat Alcantara began to experience true urban development.
The industrial buildings that emerged in the late 19th century and shaped daily life in Alcantara during the early 20th century were eventually abandoned. The industrialisation that defined Alcantara in the second half of the 19th century gave way, a century later, to the opposite process: deindustrialisation and profound social transformation. Today, many of these former industrial spaces have been converted into residential and commercial buildings.
