In the course of the Christian Reconquista , Taveiro was depopulated and repopulated by the Santa Cruz Monastery in Coimbra. Taveiro later became the property of the University of Coimbra . In the course of the administrative reforms in connection with the Liberal Revolution from 1820 , Taveiro became an independent administrative unit.
