Montijo, Municipality in Setúbal District, Portugal
Montijo extends across 348 square kilometers on the south bank of the Tagus River estuary within the Lisbon metropolitan region.
The settlement received its municipal charter from King Manuel I in 1514 and maintained its original name Aldeia Galega until 1930.
