history

Antas and other finds prove a prehistoric settlement. Remains of settlements from the Castro culture and the Lusitans can also be found here. In the 2nd century BC The Romans took the area. It became part of the province of Lusitania , Roman roads to Lamego ran through today's district. After the Suebi drove the Romans out here in the 5th century , the area became part of the Visigoth Empire . In the course of the Arab conquest from 711 , this area also fell to the Moors . In the name of the municipality of São Martinho de Mouros, there is still a reference to this time.

In the course of the Reconquista , two administrative units were created in what is now the district area. In addition to São Martinho de Mouros (probably first city rights in 1058 ), this was the district of Arego, which received its first city rights in 1183 . In the 12th century, King D. Afonso Henriques split off Resende from the Aregos district and gave it to his tutor Egas Moniz .

Resende became a separate district in 1514 and received its first city rights. In 1855 , the districts of Aregos and São Martinho de Mouros were dissolved and merged with the more centrally located Resende to form today's district.
