This outstanding defensive lines are related with the Napoleonic wars fought in Portugal and Spain, and known as Peninsular wars, when the French armies were opposed by British and Portuguese forces around Lisbon.
Between eighteen hundred and seven and eighteen eleven the French army entered in Portugal several times.
The Portuguese and British armies under the command of general Wellington built fortifications in the country around Lisbon with a length of eighty five km and one hundred and fifty two fortifications. Is certainly the longest fortified defensive line in Europe. The celebrated lines of Torres Vedras were defensive works designed to resist any army that Napoleon could send to Portugal.
It was from this base that Wellington successfully defended, that in 1812 he began gradual advance into Spain.
The coin depicts a Portuguese soldier of the Peninsular War with the inscription of the lines and important places symbolizing the defensive line.
