HISTORY

The 16th-century fort, which has a turbulent history including the arrival of the powerful Spanish Armada and, later, the British Navy, was subsequently occupied and pillaged until the restoration of Portuguese independence. From then until the middle of the 20th century, it served to house soldiers and was later classified as a National Monument and transformed into a Pousada.

LOCATION AND DESTINATION

The Azores will surprise you with their enchanting nature – beautiful landscapes where the green of the fields blends with the colour of the flowers and the blue of the sea, along with the numerous volcanic craters.

See the whales and dolphins on the high seas, or make the most of the wind by doing a little sailing or windsurfing. If you prefer something more peaceful, go canoeing and/or diving.

Visit the Scrimshaw Museum, the Horta Regional Museum, the Convent of St. John, the typical Faial Windmills and the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary. Let yourself be enchanted by the beauty of the Capelinhos Volcano, the Faial Botanical Gardens and the Gardens of Florêncio Terra. And you can round off your day with a drink at the iconic "Peter Café Sport".

Horta Airport is just 9 km away from Pousada Forte da Horta and it´s an Historic Hotel has 28 rooms.
