Interesting FACTS about CALHETA - Madeira’s Sunlit Coastal Haven

Описание: Calheta, one of Madeira's oldest municipalities, was founded in 1430 and became a village in 1502 by decree of King Manuel I. Initially a hub for sugar cane production, it welcomed noblemen and knights among its early settlers, contributing to its agricultural and cultural development.

In the late 19th century, the Sociedade dos Engenhos da Calheta marked significant industrial growth, particularly in sugar processing. Today, Calheta is known for its rich history, white rum, and artificial beach, preserving a vibrant cultural and natural heritage.
