Alverca do Ribatejo is a Portuguese parish in the municipality of Vila Franca de Xira of the Lisbon district, with an area of 23.92 km² and about 40,000 inhabitants.
Alverca is called the "green city" (due to the large number of green spaces and tree-lined streets). It is a great crossing point for rail and car, making it very easy and quick to connect to the Lisbon capital. The main attractions of the city are the Air Museum, the Municipal Museum - Alverca Nucleus, the Manueline pillory at Largo João Mantas in the center of Alverca, the St. Peter's Church, the old Misericórdia and the Pastorinhos Church, which closes the second largest chime in Europe and the third largest in the world. Also noteworthy is the Álvaro Vidal Garden, some views of the Tagus and Lezíria, rare in the Greater Lisbon area.
One of Alverca's characteristics is its connection to the history of Portuguese Aviation, being considered as the cradle of aviation in Portugal. There settled in 1919 the military aerodrome and the General Aeronautical Material Workshops. It was also in Alverca that the first Portuguese international airport, called the International Landing Field, operated, which served Lisbon until the opening of Portela Airport in 1940.
