The area of Vila Viçosa has been inhabited since Antiquity, and it was the site of a small settlement in Roman times. The region was part of the Visigoth Kingdom and in the eighth century came under Moorish control after the Muslim conquest of Hispania. Moorish domination ended in 1217, when the region was reconquered by the Order of Aviz, a military order of knighthood that reclaimed large parts of Southern Portugal to the Christians. The order promoted the settlement of Christians in the area during the 13th century. In 1270, King Afonso III granted a foral(letter of feudal rights) to the incipient village of Vila Viçosa. In the early 14th century, King Dinis I built a castle in the village, to protect it from potential Castilian incursions.
In 1461, Vila Viçosa came to the hands of the House of Braganza, one of the most important houses of nobility of Portugal. This event was crucial in the history of the village, which became the main base of the Dukes of Braganza in the next centuries. The Dukes had considerable wealth and greatly promoted the economic, urban and artistic development of the village.
In 1502 the building of the Ducal Palace of Vila Viçosa was begun, sponsored by Jaime, fourth Duke of Braganza. Jaime was a skilled military leader who later led the Portuguese to victory against a Moorish army in the Battle of Azamor, in Morocco. The Ducal Palace was greatly remodelled between the 16th and 17th centuries in a sober late Renaissance (Mannerist) style, and was decorated through the centuries by several artists. The Dukes also sponsored artistic campaigns in several churches and monasteries in the village.
When Duke John became King John IV, in 1640, the House of Braganza moved to the capital Lisbon, and many of the riches of the Ducal Palace were transferred to the Ribeira Palace. Vila Viçosa became a vacation spot for the members of the Braganza family. This marks the beginning of a period of decay for Vila Viçosa.

Vila Viçosa é uma vila portuguesa, no Distrito de Évora, região Alentejo e sub-região do Alentejo Central, com cerca de 5 023 habitantes (2012).[1]
É sede de um município com 194,86 km² de área[2] e 8 319 habitantes (2011),[3] [4] subdividido em 4 freguesias.[5] O município é limitado a norte e leste pelo município de Elvas, a sul pelo Alandroal, a oeste pelo Redondo e a noroeste por Borba.
Em Vila Viçosa mantiveram-se os duques de Bragança durante vários séculos até à Proclamação da República as suas propriedades e o magnífico Paço Ducal de Vila Viçosa.
É em Vila Viçosa que se encontra a imagem original de Nossa Senhora da Conceição, padroeira e rainha de Portugal, no Santuário Nacional.
Vila Viçosa foi ocupada sucessivamente pelos romanos e muçulmanos. É conquistada para o reino de Portugal em 1217, durante o reinado de D. Afonso II. Em 1270 recebe foral de D. Afonso III, vendo o seu nome mudado de Vale Viçoso para Vila Viçosa. O foral é bastante idêntico ao de Monsaraz, Estremoz e Santarém, atribuindo grandes regalias a Vila Viçosa. No século XIV, D. Dinis manda erigir o Castelo de Vila Viçosa.
Na Crise de 1383-1385, o comendador-mor da Ordem de Avis, Vasco Porcalho, traiu e, tomando o partido de Castela, apossou-se de Vila Viçosa com duzentos e cinquenta homens seus e duzentos castelhanos, o que obrigou a população a fugir para Borba[6] . Um ano e alguns meses depois, na debandada geral que se seguiu à batalha de Aljubarrota, Vasco Porcalho e a sua hoste abandonaram quer a vila quer o castelo[7] . Em 1461 Vila Viçosa passou a fazer parte do Ducado de Bragança. Em 1500, Jaime I de Bragança foi convidado a regressar à corte por D. Manuel I, sendo-lhe restituídos os títulos e as terras do ducado. Em 1502 com o início da construção do Paço Ducal de Vila Viçosa, Vila Viçosa tornou-se a sede do Ducado de Bragança. Em 1512, Vila Viçosa recebe o foral de D. Manuel I.
Durante o domínio filipino, Vila Viçosa, era sede da maior corte ducal da Península Ibérica. Em 1640, um grupo de conspiradores convenceu o então João II, Duque de Bragança a aceitar o trono de Portugal, tornando-se a 1 de Dezembro de 1640, D. João IV (1640-1656) dando início à Dinastia de Bragança. A partir desta data, Vila Viçosa, perdeu fulgor e tornou-se na residência real de férias. Em 1646, João IV de Portugal ofereceu a coroa de Portugal a Nossa Senhora da Conceição como agradecimento pela boa campanha da Guerra da Restauração, tornando-se Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Rainha e Padroeira de Portugal. A partir desta data, mais nenhum Rei de Portugal usou a coroa.
Em 1755, Vila Viçosa foi fortemente abalada pelo Terramoto de 1755. No início do século XIX, Vila Viçosa foi saqueada durante as Invasões Francesas.
Com a Proclamação da República a 5 de Outubro de 1910, Vila Viçosa caiu em decadência, devido ao objectivo dos republicanos em apagar todos os vestígios da monarquia. Contudo, na década de 1930, com a exploração dos mármores (Mármore de Estremoz) e abertura do Paço Ducal de Vila Viçosa para turismo, Vila Viçosa começou a modificar-se até aos dias de hoje. Actualmente, como acontece com muitas cidades alentejanas, sua população encontra-se em diminuição, cujo principal factor responsável é a emigração para outras regiões de Portugal ou mesmo do estrangeiro.
Everywhere the Skytrain goes, old buildings are torn down, and new highrises go up. The idea of the various city planners seems to be that people who live next to the line will take public transit rather than using their cars. This is a myth, of course, but in any case, land values rise, and developers move in. Behind this fence Bosa Corp will be erecting at least one, and possibly two highrises, with, as they say, retail space available. On this site there used to be a Safeway, and about half of the Burquitlam Plaza, with small stores, a gas station, and a parking lot. Is it progress? Somehow, it doesn't seem like it.

I used to come here all the time when I was in junior high and high school. Just coming here and being here was fun and exciting. Even though the photo was taken more than 10 years ago, the expressions of young people walking through the city are full of excitement. But lately, everyone's expressions have been cloudy.
Urban development is progressing even though there is no need for it, and the commercial facilities in the completed buildings are all high-end stores. Places like underground secret bases for young people without money are disappearing more and more. Is this really okay? At Shibuya.

What qualification you need to be a development worker?
To be a development worker all you need is to learn "Psychological Guerilla Warfare" to play with the mind of the target community and "Yoga" to relax the mind set up of yourself.
