Terreiro da Luta, Cultural site in Monte, Portugal

Located at 32.68 degrees latitude and -16.89 longitude, Terreiro da Luta stands on elevated ground in the Monte district of Funchal, Madeira.

The Nossa Senhora da Paz sanctuary at Terreiro da Luta commemorates the 1917 German submarine bombing of Funchal during World War I.

The 1914 statue of João Gonçalves Zarco near Terreiro da Luta recognizes the Portuguese navigator who discovered Madeira in the fifteenth century.

The former train station has been converted into a restaurant and event space, providing facilities for weddings and social gatherings.

The site connects to an old ice deposit called Poço de Neve, which stored winter ice for hospitals and hotels during summer months.
