About

Impérios are colourful chapels typical of Terceira linked to the cult of the Holy Spirit, a tradition unique to the Azores. Angra's example, painted in blue and white, ranks among the island's finest and comes alive during the festas do Espírito Santo in summer. A symbol of Azorean cultural identity, both profound and living.
