Church of São Bartolomeu dos Regatos
São Bartolomeu dos Regatos, PT
São Bartolomeu is one of the oldest churches in Terceira. It is known that, in 1486, it was still a location that belonged to the parish of Santa Bárbara. According to tradition, in the year 1500, on the initiative of D. Ignês Alvares and her husband, a small hermitage was built in the place where the current church is located. It is possible that between that year and 1564 the place was elevated to at least a curate, since parish registration services began in 1564.
