Discover Angra do Heroísmo

Photos, information and travel guides for your stay.

Angra do Heroísmo, officially the Very Noble, Loyal and Ever Steadfast City of Angra do Heroísmo, or simply Angra, is a city and municipality on Terceira Island, Portugal, and one of the three capital cities of the Azores. Founded in 1478, Angra was historically the most important city in the Azores, as seat of the Bishop of the Azores, government entities, and having previously served as the capital city of Portugal during the Liberal Wars. The population in 2011 was 35,402, in an area of 239.00 km2. It was classified as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1983.

As you wander through the town's cobbled streets and colorful buildings, you'll be transported back in time to the 16th century when Angra do Heroísmo was a bustling hub of trade and commerce. The town's historic center is a UNESCO World Heritage site, and it's not hard to see why. The architecture is a unique blend of Gothic, Baroque, and Renaissance styles, and the buildings are adorned with intricate details and colorful tiles.

But Angra do Heroísmo is more than just a pretty face. The town is also home to some of the Azores' most stunning natural wonders. Head to Monte Brasil, a volcanic crater-turned-nature reserve, for breathtaking views of the town and the ocean beyond. Or take a dip in the crystal-clear waters of the nearby Praia da Vitória beach.
