history
Some historians date the first origins of the city of Pinhel to 5000 BC. In 1179 Pinhel was recaptured from the Moors by Dom Afonso Henriques . The Pinhel district received certain rights (Foral) from Dom Sancho in 1209. These rights were confirmed by Dom Afonso II in 1217 and by Dom Dinis in 1282. Dom Manuel issued a new foral in 1510. Pinhel received town charter in 1770 through Dom José and became a bishopric by dividing the diocese of Lamego. In 1881 the Pinhel diocese was dissolved and integrated into the Guarda diocese .
