About
Monumento à Autonomia, on Madeira, is an artwork at Praça da Autonomia, 9000-079 Funchal, Portugal. The piece stands in a public square in the island's capital, and the rating stands at 4.5 out of 5 from 198 reviews.
First-time visitors should expect a monument in an open square rather than a museum or gallery, with the setting as much a part of the visit as the work itself. Reviews mention the square's position in central Funchal, and the 198 entries give a broad picture. Reaching the monument from Câmara de Lobos, Caniço, Machico, Santana, São Vicente, Porto Moniz or Calheta involves a drive, since Funchal is the island's main hub and the coastal towns fan out from it.
Portuguese is the official language on the Azores, Madeira and Cape Verde, with local accents and creole varieties. Fish stews and grilled fish are everyday dishes, and each island keeps its own recipes. The winter months are cooler and windier, and each island group has its own pattern of wet and dry months.
