File Est tua a Mumadona Dias no Largo da Mumadona 04.JPG thumb Statue of Mumadona in Guimar es Mumadona Dias , or Muniadomna D az , County of Portugal Countess of Portugal in the 10th century, ruling between c. 924 c. 950. She was daughter of Count Diogo Fernandes and of countess Onega. Celebrated, rich and the most powerful woman in the Northwest of the Iberian peninsula , she has been commemorated by several Portuguese cities. In c. 926 Mumadona was already married to Count Hermenegildo Gonz lez . She governed the county alone after her husband s death in c. 928. She left it in the ownership of countless domains, in an area that coincided reasonably with zones that would integrate the back counties of County of Portugal Portugal and of County of Coimbra Coimbra . Those domains were divided in July 950 among her six children, giving Gonzalo Men ndez the county of Portugal. In 950 or 951, with divine inspiration, she founded, on her property in Vimaranes, a monastery under S o Mamede s invocation Mosteiro of S o Mamede or Mosteiro of Guimar es . Later she professed her vows there. To protect this monastery and its people from Viking raids, she initiated the construction of the Castle of Guimar es , in the shade of which Guimar es burgh was developed. Eventually this became the headquarters of the court of the counts of Portugal. The testamentary document in which she makes the donation of her domains, cattle , incomes, religious objects and books to Guimar es monastery, dated of January 26 959, was important for verifying the existence of several castles and villages in the region.
