The name Aljubarrota is from a famouse battle, in a war between the spanish invading forces and portuguese forces, that took place in 14th August 1385. This battle was so famouse because, when the spanish trops were marching toward Lisbon from Leiria, the portuguese trops blocked the road...and even, with lower equipment and out numbered the portuguese won this famouse battle, due to an exelent war tactics of his commander. Legend says that even a woman-baker, with her ovenpeel fought the spanish troops.
