Nossa Senhora da Vida (Capelas de)

Manuel Valente founded in 1679, in the parish of São Pedro, a chapel consecrated to Nossa Senhora da Vida, which we do not know where it was located. On a small hill overlooking the sea stands a chapel of the same invocation, founded by Inês Teixeira, in a year that we do not know. It is located in the place of Fajã do Mar.
