                          About Public Holidays in Portugal

                          Portugal's Restoration of Independence Day (December 1) marks the 1640 end of 60 years of Spanish Habsburg rule, a much older restoration than most independence holidays covered on this list. Freedom Day (April 25) marks the 1974 Carnation Revolution that peacefully ended a decades-long dictatorship, named for the carnations placed in soldiers' rifles that day.
