The Sé Parish Council has established the Sé Parish Day, to be celebrated annually on June 5th. The date was chosen for its historical relevance to the parish and to Funchal.
The selection of June 5, 1485, marks the donation of land by D. Manuel for the construction of Funchal's Cathedral, a crucial moment for urban development. The initiative aims to enhance local memory, heritage, and identity, bringing residents closer to their territory's history.
The Council has prepared an explanatory video on the origin and meaning of the date, combining historical documentation and images. The Parish Council President emphasizes that Parish Day will be a moment to connect with identity, reinforcing the responsibility to preserve heritage for future generations.
