In this study, we present a contribution to assess the importance that the Portuguese central maritime belt had in the Modern Period. After a brief characterization of the archaeological and historical context of the territory of the current municipality of Figueira da Foz, the Dutch corsair attack to Buarcos in 1629 is analyzed. Although some sources and studies on the defensive aspects of Buarcos are known, much remains to be investigated, as evidenced by the little-known or even unpublished relevant sources presented here, which allow a new reading of a lesser-known episode in local history and a confrontation of points of view. The methodology of this investigation was centered on a cross analysis of information, relating different sources, in a micro-history approach. ; Neste artigo apresentamos um contributo para avaliar a importância que a faixa marítima central portuguesa deteve na Época Moderna. Depois de uma breve caracterização do contexto arqueológico e histórico do território do atual município da Figueira da Foz, analisa-se o ataque corsário holandês em Buarcos no ano de 1629. Apesar de serem conhecidas algumas fontes e estudos sobre os aspetos defensivos de Buarcos, muito há ainda por investigar, como se comprova pelas fontes pouco conhecidas ou mesmo inéditas relevantes aqui apresentadas, as quais, permitem uma nova leitura sobre um episódio menos conhecido da história local e um confronto de pontos de vista. A metodologia desta investigação centrou-se numa análise cruzada de informações, relacionando diferentes fontes, numa abordagem de micro-história.
