Nachricht von Sergio

The Moinhos de Vento de Porto Santo are iconic windmills that stand as a symbol of the island’s cultural heritage. Their origins date back to the late 18th century, with the first windmill being built in 1794 to grind grain for breadmaking, a staple of life on the island.

What makes these windmills particularly interesting is their design: most are constructed from wood and feature a rotating base, allowing the sails to be adjusted to face the direction of the wind. This clever design was essential for Porto Santo’s flat terrain, where winds blow consistently from various directions throughout the year.

The most famous group of windmills can be found near Miradouro da Portela, a scenic viewpoint offering breathtaking panoramic views of Porto Santo’s coastline and landscapes. Here, you can admire the windmills up close while taking in the stunning beauty of the island.

Visiting the Moinhos de Vento provides a unique opportunity to step back in time and appreciate Porto Santo’s agricultural traditions, while enjoying one of the most picturesque spots on the island. A must-see for history enthusiasts, photographers, and anyone captivated by the charm of Porto Santo!
