Mamarrosa is a place and a former municipality in Portugal .
history
Celtiberians settled here in pre- Roman times . The current village was probably formed during the medieval Reconquista . It was first mentioned as Mamoa rasa in 1020. The place name is derived from Mamoas , prehistoric tombs which the Romans called Mammulas because of their similarity to female breasts .
King D. Sancho I bequeathed Mamarrosa in 1193 to an order of monk knights who had made a name for themselves in the conquest of Silves from the Moors in 1189. In 1282 Mamarrosa was again directly owned by the king.
The parish church of Mamarrosa, the Igreja de São Simão , was built in the 18th century.
By outsourcing from the municipality of Mamarrosa, the newly created municipality of Bustos was created in 1920 .
Mamarrosa has been a small town ( Vila ) since 2003 .
In 2013 Mamarrosa merged with the municipalities of Troviscal and Bustos to form the new municipality of Bustos, Troviscal e Mamarrosa .
