Afonso Henriques (the first Portuguese king) with the help of about 15,000 crusaders on their way to the Holy Land and with a Portuguese army of about 30,000 combatants, laid siege to Lisbon. After 3 months on 21st. October legend has it that the knight, Martim Moniz and a small group of crusaders forced open the gates of the castle.
