A museum retracing the history of Capelinhos, the lighthouse and the various volcanic eruptions at Capelo.
Several exhibitions trace the history of Capelinhos, the lighthouse and the various volcanic eruptions that have shaped the landscape of the Azores (and beyond) since their creation. Social repercussions such as mass emigration are also discussed. Three-dimensional film projections. Guided tours in English available. An exciting museum in a unique setting. A must-see in Capelinhos and the surrounding region.

Dépaysant
Super beau musée sur le volcan, didactique à souhait. Chouette petite balade à faire aux alentours. Le paysage lunaire tranche avec le paysage vert du reste de l'île.

Visite originale, complète et très intéressante. Ce nouveau centre explique l'histoire de l'éruption qui a récemment défiguré l'ile. Vue imprenable du phare, centre d'interprétation enterré. Belle réussite ! une ballade vaut la peine.

Musée super qui permet de comprendre la formation des volcans des Açores et de découvrir les autres îles et surtout le Capelhino du à une coulée de lave qui a agrandi l'île en gagnant sur la mer.

Voici un endroit magique. un volcan sorti de mer il y a 60 ans. Impressionnant. Du village, il reste une maison, quelques murs et le phare. Très belle balade tout autour du site. Sous le site, bétonné dans la lave, un centre d'interprétation du volcan.
