Abadia River
Abadia River is a river in Portugal. It flows into the Alcobaça River.
It is born near Batalha, passes through Alpedriz and Valado dos Frades, where it flows into the river Alcobaça.
In 1747, the Abadia river was located in the District of Leiria, in the Patriarchate of Lisbon, province of Extremadura. It divided the parish of Famalicão by the part of the North, and it brought its origin from the parts of the city of Alcobaça. It was not watery, and therefore incapable of vessels. Some fish were created in it, like mullet, eels, anthias and wrasses. The inhabitants of the places where they passed used freely of the waters of this river for the culture of the land. Formerly barge was used, but in 1747 already existed a bridge of wood. It kept the same name, losing it entering the sea, next to the range of fishing.
