----------- SANTO TIRSO 🇵🇹 ---------
Santo Tirso é uma cidade portuguesa localizada na sub-região da Área Metropolitana do Porto, pertencendo à região do Norte e ao distrito do Porto.
Santo Tirso foi o nome atribuído ao mosteiro fundado ou reedificado, no século X, pelos monges beneditinos na localidade de Moreira de Riba de Ave, sob o patrocínio de D. Alboazar Ramíres, morto em 960, filho bastardo do Rei Ramiro II de Leão, em homenagem a Santo Tirso de Apolónia.
Santo Tirso de Apolónia foi um santo muito popular na Alta Idade Média na Península Ibérica, tendo deixado topónimos do Norte de Portugal, na Galiza, em Leão e nas Astúrias.

--------- SANTO TIRSO 🇺🇸 🇬🇧 ---------
Santo Tirso (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈsɐ̃tu ˈtiɾsu]) is a city and municipality located in the north of Porto Metropolitan Area, 25 km from central Porto, Portugal. In the region, the Ave Valley, there is a large center of textile industry.
The History of Santo Tirso is tied to its benedictine monastery. The town grew around it and, from 978 until 1834, it was a "couto" - a neutral area that belonged to the clergy. Known initially as Santo Tirso de Riba de Ave, this city has been the capital of a municipality at least since 1833. Its composition changed throughout the years, especially in 1998, when the nearby city of Trofa created its own municipality, taking some of Santo Tirso's towns with it.
Towards the middle of the 19th century, Santo Tirso spearheaded the industrialization of the Ave Valley. One of the first textile factories in the region, the Fábrica de Fiação e Tecidos do Rio Vizela, opened in Vila das Aves, part of its municipality, in 1845. This factory would become the largest of its kind in Portugal, with an area of about nine square kilometres and employing, at one point, over 3.000 people.
