The Battle of Veiga de Trancoso took place on May 29, 1385, opposing Portuguese forces to Castilian troops. This confrontation is described as a rehearsal for the Battle of Aljubarrota, which would take place months later.

The main source for reconstructing the events of this battle is the "Chronicle of King John I," a work written by Fernão Lopes. Through this historical document, it is possible to follow step by step the events that marked this episode of Portuguese history, situated in the context of the War of Succession between Portugal and Castile.
