Summary
[edit]DescriptionObelisco do Alto da Memória - Angra do Heroísmo - Portugal (8525253830).jpg |
O Alto da Memória ou Outeiro da Memória localiza-se no cimo do Jardim Duque da Terceira, no centro histórico da cidade e Concelho de Angra do Heroísmo, na Ilha Terceira, nos Açores. História Neste local o capitão do donatário João Vaz Corte Real fez erguer a primeira fortificação da antiga Angra, o chamado Castelo dos Moinhos, cerca de 1474. Esta fortificação, longe do mar, traduzia uma concepção ainda tardo-medieval, europeia e mediterrânica, de defesa em acrópole. O obelisco que o caracteriza atualmente foi erigido no século XIX em homenagem à passagem de Pedro IV de Portugal pela Terceira, no contexto da Guerra Civil Portuguesa (1828-1834). De evidente simbologia maçónica, teve a sua pedra fundamental lançada a 3 de março de 1845, estando concluído em 1856. Essa primeira pedra foi recolhida no cais da cidade, sendo uma das que o imperador havia pisado quando de seu desembarque naquele local, em 1832. As pedras do antigo castelo foram reaproveitadas para a construção do obelisco. Este monumento foi praticamente destruído pelo grande terramoto de 1980, que provocou enormes estragos nas ilhas do Grupo Central do arquipélago. Foi reconstruído e reinaugurado pela Câmara Municipal de Angra do Heroísmo em 25 de Abril de 1985. De seu miradouro o visitante desfruta de uma vista abrangente Angra do Heroísmo e a sua baía, bem como do Forte de São Sebastião, da Fortaleza de São João Baptista, do Monte Brasil, da serra do Morião e da serra da Ribeirinha. <a href="http://pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alto_da_Mem%c3%b3ria" rel="nofollow">pt.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alto_da_Mem%C3%B3ria</a> <a href="http://loc.alize.us/#/flickr:8525253830" rel="nofollow">See where this picture was taken.</a> <a href="https://www.flickr.com/groups/geotagging/discuss/72157594165549916/">[?]</a> |
