==History== The name originated from the Arabic word masjana, which means prison. The date of the town's foundation is unknown. Retaken from the Moors by Dom Sancho II in 1235, it received the status of municipality from Dom Dinis but this status was nullified on 24 October 1855. Dom Dinis restored his castle in 1288 and donated the town to the Military Order of Saint James of the Sword. Messejana received a foral or town charter from D. Manuel I on 1 July 1512.
