Ajuda ((:ɐˈʒudɐ)) is a Portuguese civil parish (''(ポルトガル語:freguesia)'') in the municipality of Lisbon. The population in 2011 was 15,617,〔(Instituto Nacional de Estatística (INE) ), Census 2011 results according to the 2013 administrative division of Portugal〕 in an area of 2.88 km².〔(Direção-Geral do Território )〕 ==History== The parish of Ajuda, situated between the beach area of Belém and the foothills of the Monsanto was a place that was not conditioned for agriculture. A legend tells of a shepherd experienced an apparition of the Virgin Mary while passing the area. News of the event spread rapidly, and the area was visited by the faithful, many of whom settled there around a chapel built at the site of the vision. The small sanctuary was eventually replaced by a church, and the number of pilgrims grew to include members of the upper class and high nobility, who attended religious services. Queen Catherine of Austria, the consort of King John III of Portugal, eventually visited and prayed at the church, influencing members of the nobility to build residences in the area. Ajuda became an ecclesiastical parish in 1551. During the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, Ajuda did not escape the destruction, losing many of the buildings constructed over the centuries. This included the Convento de Nossa Senhora da Boa Hora (''(英語:Convent of Our Lady of the Good Hour)''), which was later reconstructed by the Augustine monks in 1756. The Royal Family too had to abandon the ''Palácio da Ribeira'' (''(英語:Ribeira Palace)''), and began living, along the court, in the ''Quinta de Cima'' in Ajuda, initially in wooden buildings, locally called the ''Real Barraca'' (''(英語:Royal Barracks)''). The level of insecurity after the earthquake and tsunami forced many to install themselves in Ajuda; the population grew from 1059 inhabitants to 4748 residents. The village consisted of five separate agglomerations clustered around the roadways: Calçada da Ajuda (alongside Alcântara); Travessa da Estopa; Calçada de Nossa Senhora da Ajuda; Rua das Mercês and Rua da Paz. In 1762, Ajuda became a part of the municipality of Lisbon, and dropped pretenses of a suburban locality. The parish was an agglomeration of houses, manors, quarries, earthen stoves and windmills. In 1768, the Marquis of Pombal, as part of his reconstruction initiatives, built the Botanical Gardens in the area of Horta da Quinta de Cima. It was also around that time, between 1766 and 1787, that Pina Manique had constructed the Ajuda Cemetery, where many of the Royal servants were buried. The ''Real Barraca'' was subsequently replaced by a grande palace, the Ajuda National Palace; the construction began in 1795, but its construction was interrupted by the French Invasion of Portugal and subsequent escape of the Royal family to the colony of Brazil, but completed in the middle of the 19th Century. It would become the official residence of King Carlos I. Between 1852 and 1885 Ajuda became integrated into the municipality of Belém, but was re-inserted by the end of the 19th Century. Since the late part of the 20th Century, the population has decreased, due to the exodus to the suburbs and periphery of the city. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ajuda」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
