About Angra do Heroísmo
Angra do Heroísmo is the old stone town of Terceira island in the Azores, a UNESCO-listed port of colourful houses, churches and a fortified headland.
Angra do Heroísmo, on the south coast of Terceira island in the Azores, was a key stop for ships sailing between Europe, Africa, India and the Americas from the fifteenth century. Its old town, a grid of cobbled streets lined with whitewashed and pastel houses trimmed in dark volcanic stone, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The town was rebuilt after an earthquake in 1980 and kept its old shape. The Sé Cathedral and the Jardim Duque da Terceira are at its heart.
