Tomorrow, September 14, marks the 90 years since the train arrived in Sines

SAPO Notícias13 September 2026 at 12:16

Tomorrow, September 14, marks the 90th anniversary of the train's arrival in the city of Sines. This milestone represents a significant historical moment for the municipality, which saw its railway connection established nine decades ago.

The date is commemorated through a video made with excerpts from a film produced in 1936, documenting that historical period. The municipality of Sines shared this memory through its social media, specifically on the Facebook platform, using the hashtag #sinesagora.

The arrival of the train represented a milestone in Sines's development, transforming the mobility and connectivity of this coastal Alentejo city. The celebration of these 90 years allows us to revisit that moment through the cinematographic images preserved since 1936.

Why this matters

Sines residents now have access to rare archival images documenting a landmark moment in the city's history, when the train arrived for the first time, transforming mobility and the region's connection to the rest of the country. This commemoration allows current generations to better understand Sines's evolution over nine decades.
