Capelinha de Nossa Senhora de Fátima

Nestled amidst the green hills of São Vicente, on the captivating northern coast of Madeira Island, lies a symbol of profound faith and enduring tradition: the enchanting Capelinha de Nossa Senhora de Fátima.

Perched majestically atop a lush hill, this serene sanctuary stands as a beacon of tranquillity amidst nature’s embrace.

Its architecture, a striking fusion of simplicity and elegance, captivates the eye—a quadrangular tower rising towards the heavens, crowned by a spire that pierces the azure sky.

As you ascend the steps to the Capelinha de Nossa Senhora de Fátima, a panoramic vista unfolds, offering a glimpse into the soul-stirring beauty of São Vicente.

On one side, there are majestic mountains covered in green trees, and on the other side, there’s the wide-open Atlantic Ocean spreading out as far as you can see.

Below, the quaint village of São Vicente nestles serenely, its terracotta rooftops a testament to centuries of history and tradition.

This revered monument, an integral part of São Vicente’s religious and cultural fabric, has recently undergone a meticulous restoration, ensuring its sacred legacy endures for generations to come.
