Valença, also known as Valença do Minho, is a historic fortress town in northern Portugal, situated on the border with Spain along the Minho River. The town is primarily known for its well-preserved 17th-century military fortifications, which form a double line of defensive walls and represent a significant example of military architecture.
The fortified old town, with its characteristic cobblestone streets and traditional architecture, reflects the strategic importance Valença held in protecting Portugal's northern frontier throughout history. The town maintains its cultural heritage through its traditional crafts, particularly in textiles and embroidery, and serves as an important stop on the Portuguese Way of the Camino de Santiago.
Today, Valença combines its historical significance with a vibrant commercial center, known for its local markets and traditional Portuguese products.
