Fortifications, Historic, Interesting Places, Castles

A Fortaleza de São João Baptista do Pico, popularmente referida apenas como Fortaleza do Pico, localiza-se no chamado Pico dos Frias, na freguesia de São Pedro, concelho do Funchal, na Região Autónoma da Madeira.

Um dos "ex-libris" da ilha, esta fortaleza foi erguida no contexto da Dinastia Filipina, em posição dominante sobre o Picos dos Frias, como parte integrante do sistema defensivo da cidade do Funchal contra os ataques de corsários e piratas, frequentes nesta região do oceano Atlântico à época. Do alto de seus muros, os visitantes podem desfrutar de um dos melhores panoramas da cidade e porto do Funchal.
