Built in 1420 and site of Madeira’s first religious Mass, the original chapel was destroyed by a terrible flood and its treasured wooden crucifix swept out to sea. Extraordinarily, it was retrieved and returned by a passing ship! Every October, the town of Machico celebrates this miracle with a candlelit procession. www.madeira-web.com/PagesUK/churches.html
