Popis: The monastery of Santa María de Oia, located in the coast of Pontevedra’s province, had since its foundation in the middle of twelfth Century a very close relation with the Portuguese territory. A considerable part of the monastery’s patrimony was established in Portugal, more specifically in the Northwest frontier with Galicia and in the Estremadura region. The aim of this study is to reflect about the peripheral and frontier nature of both Oia’s patrimony and the Portuguese territory in which it was situated, based on the relations between the monastery and the Portuguese Crown during the Reigns of Afonso Henriques, D. Dinis, Afonso IV and João I.
