It is a historic city, with a crucial role in the formation of Portugal and which has been more than a millennium since its formation, at which time it was designated as Vimaranes, this placename may have originated in Vímara Peres, in the mid-9th century, when he made this place his main government center of the Portucalense county that he had conquered for the Kingdom of Asturias. Guimarães is one of the most important historical cities in the country, with its historic center inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List since 2001, which makes it definitely one of the largest tourist centers in the region. Its streets and monuments breathe history and enchant those who visit it. The present Guimarães has been able to reconcile, in the best way, the history and consequent maintenance of the heritage with the dynamism and entrepreneurship that characterize modern cities, Guimarães is a city of 100,000 inhabitants, with a population of 1,200,000, which is reflected in the nomination for European Capital of Culture in 2012, factors that led Guimarães to be elected by the New York Times as one of the 41 places to visit in 2011 and to consider it one of the emerging cultural points of the Iberian Peninsula. It was also European City of Sport (CED), in 2013. In the latter, Guimarães was distinguished as the best CED of 2013. Guimarães is often referred to as the Cradle City, due to the fact that it was established there as the administrative center of the County of Portucalense by D. The city was named after the king of Portugal, Henry II, and his son, Afonso Henriques, who were born in this city. The Battle of São Mamede, fought on the outskirts of the city on 24 June 1128, was of great historical importance for the formation of the Portuguese nation. However, the Reconquista and the protection of the southern territories brought the centre to Coimbra in 1129. The region in which Guimarães is integrated is of permanent settlement since at least the National Final Calcolithic, as evidenced by the presence, in the municipality, of the cytanias of Briteiros and Sabroso or the archaeological station of the Penha.
