Abstract: O presente trabalho analisa a acção das Misericordias do Alto Minho no contexto da guerra da Restauração, procurando destacar os efeitos das guerras nestas confrarias e a capacidade que as mesmas tiveram de os enfrentar. Embora a presença da guerra se fizesse sentir em vários sectores da vida das Misericordias, foi sobretudo na cura de militares e na destruição do seu patrimonio que as marcas foram mais profundas. Apesar das dificuldades sentidas, as Misericordias do Alto Minho cooperaram com a Coroa e mantiveram-se firmes na ajuda aos pobres.
This present work is an analysis of the action carried out by Misericórdias in thq Alto Minho, region de Portugal, during the Restauration War, pointing out the effects of this war on these confraternities and their capacity to cope with them. Although the war had had a huge impact on many aspects of Misericórdias life, its impact was bigger on two aspects: need to provide medical care for the military and destruction of patrimony. Nevertheless, despite many difficulties, the Misericórdias of the Alto Minho were able to aid the Crown and to continue their centuries long task of providing assistance to the poor.
