In the Restoration Wars there was an obvious need to defend the Kingdom from the Spanish offensive, especially in frontier towns and cities.
It is in this context that several fortifications were built in these localities, namely in Estremoz. Not exactly a frontier town, it served as the 2nd line of defense of the territory, especially in logistical support (warehouse of arms, supplies and troops). It was D. João IV (1640-1656), the first of the Braganças to reign in Portugal, who in 1642 ordained to João Pascácio Cosmander the design of the future bracketed polygonal wall of Estremocense. This work would protect the village from hypothetical attacks and advances of the Spanish troops, and the new bastions were adapted for heavy artillery battles.
The Port of Santa Catarina maintains a niche of devotion to the patroness, having as the most interesting element the guarita of the military round, in stylization of cannon and ennobled by the regal shield of Portugal.
