Historic Churches & Convents

Angra do Heroísmo, a UNESCO World Heritage site, preserves a dense concentration of religious landmarks reflecting its role as a key Atlantic port. This selection includes the 16th-century Convento de São Francisco, now home to the city museum, and the Jesuit-built Church of Nossa Senhora do Carmo with its intricate gilded woodcarvings. These sites showcase Azorean Baroque and Neoclassical styles, featuring traditional blue-and-white tiles and ornate altarpieces that illustrate the spiritual and artistic history of Terceira Island.
