Casa da Rocha is a place with history because it was in this property, in 1836, that was born casually the first pear tree of a new quality of pear, the now so famous Pêra Rocha that owes its name to the then owner, Mr. António Rocha. From here it has spread all over the region of Sintra and then to the West region and around the world. "In 1836, Mr. Pedro António Rocha by chance discovered a different pear tree on his property, Fazenda Rocha, which was located in Ribeira de Sintra, in the western region, near Lisbon. Proud of having unique fruits and unusual quality, every year in September friends are invited to enjoy the pears. It was from this tree that the variety spread and gained fame. In honor of its owner, this rare fruit was renamed Pera Rocha." Ocultar
