| Given a town charter by King Dinis, Borba is the centre of an administrative area which is small but fiercely proud of its identity. This identity dates back to the very foundation of Portugal as a nation-state, as proved by the castle and city walls ordered built by King Afonso II.

| The small Alentejan market town of Borba, twice occupied by the Spaniards in 1662/3, is noted for its white marble and fruity wines. Standing dazzlingly bright among the olive groves, and nestled into the northern slopes of the diminutive Serra de Borba mountain range, the whole place was built with local marble, including the paving stones in the streets.
