Abstract

The governmental decree of 12th June 1876 ordered an inquiry to the piety and charity Portuguese institutions, which took place in the district of Coimbra during the years of 1876 to 1878. This paper searches into the cadastre that outcome from the application of the decree. By its examination is possible to quantify precisely this institutional universe, to draw its spatial display and establish its human dimension and what it represents within the whole population. It is also possible to ascertain (rigorously concerning the assistance institutions and approximately concerning the piety institutions) its patrimonial and financial state, to verify the application of the disentail law and to evaluate its role in the assistance to the populations.
