The Santa MariaA little bit of the history of Santa Maria! |
This magnificent replica of Christopher Columbus' galleon “SANTA MARIA” was built on the island of Madeira, in the small fishing village of Câmara de Lobos! |
Seven local artisans and Mr. Robert Wijntje, a Dutchman who settled in Madeira, they made a dream come true when they started building Santa Maria in 1997! |
Construction took a year and ended in July 1998. That same year “SANTA MARIA DE COLOMBO” represented Madeira wine at Expo 98 in Lisbon! |
