List of municipalities of Portugal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(Redirected from Concelhos of Portugal)

This is a list of the municipalities of Portugal. Portugal is divided into 18 districts (Portuguese: distritos) and 2 autonomous regions (regiões autónomas), Azores and Madeira. The districts and autonomous regions are further subdivided into 308 municipalities of Portugal (municípios or concelhos). Usually, a municipality is named after its largest or historically most important town or city. Municipalities are typically much larger than the city or town after which they are named.
