| Sao Vicente is a romantic place, situated in a valley in the North of Madeira. Even though the village lays at the sea, Sao Vicente feels more like a mountain village. The place is surrounded by nature that is so beautiful.Together with Boaventura and Ponta Delgada it belongs to the Municipio de Sao Vicente. The name derives of the saint who is said to have appeared at the mouth of the river that flows near the village. The small chapel `Capela de Nossa Senhora da Piedade` was built in 1694 and reminds of this happening.In the center of the village there are some traffic free streets that allow for a nice and quiet walk. Most of the houses here, including the church of Sao Vicente were built in the 18th century. The church has a small graveyard to the rear |
