São Julião is a former municipality ( freguesia ) of the Portuguese coastal town of Figueira da Foz , in the Coimbra district . On June 30, 2011 the community had 9,709 inhabitants on an area of 3.9 km².
In the run-up to the municipal reorganization of Portugal , the municipality was dissolved in 2013 and Buarcos was incorporated , contrary to the protests of the municipality of São Julião, as a municipality of the main urban area of Figueira da Foz.
