The Nabão in Tomar

The Nabão (Portuguese pronunciation: [nɐˈbɐ̃w̃]) is a river in Portugal. It rises in Ansião and passes through the city of Tomar before joining the Zêzere River — a course of about 66 kilometres (41 mi). It was known to the Romans as Nabanus. Before entering the territory of Tomar it has his biggest source in a place called Agroal. The swift waters of the Nabão once fed the factories of Tomar.^[1]

The river is associated with the tale of Santa Iria.

New Plans for Nabão[]

The Nabão will see numerous changes in Tomar, as a major improvement plan is under way, which will include construction of new road and foot bridges, promenades and gardens.^[1]
