Between 1383 and 1385, Belver aligned itself with the forces of Leonor Telles de Menezes against the Master of Avis.〔 In the 16th century, the parochial church was constructed. On 18 May 1518, King Manuel I of Portugal conceded a foral (''charter'') to Belver.〔 In the 17th century, the village was surveyed by Pedro Nunes Tinoco, and determined to be under the authority of the Priory of Crato.〔 In 1836, the municipality of Belver was extinguished and the region was integrated into the municipality of Mação.〔 This remained in effect until the end of the century, when in 1898 it was integrated into the municipality of Gavião.〔 In 1905 a bridge was completed over the ''Ribeira de Belver''.〔 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「Belver (Gavião)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
