The scenery surrounding the Terreiro da Luta Viewpoint is shaped by the colourful patchwork of Funchal. In the distance, the city’s iconic bay unfolds, framed by the vast Atlantic Ocean. A visit to the Terreiro da Luta Viewpoint is not only worthwhile for this striking view, but also for the historical landmark that stands there: the Nossa Senhora da Paz Sanctuary, the largest monument on the island, reaching a height of five metres. Designed by architect Emanuel Ribeiro, the monument was erected as a fulfilment of a promise made by the people of Madeira during the German submarine attacks on Funchal in 1917. Carved from marble, this statue in honour of Nossa Senhora do Monte forms a cherished part of the island’s cultural and emotional heritage.
