Description

La Estátua de Carvalho Araújo rinde homenaje a José Botelho de Carvalho Araújo (1881-1918), oficial naval y héroe nacional.

El monumento fue inaugurado el 14 de octubre de 1931 , exactamente 13 años después de su muerte en la Primera Guerra Mundial. La estatua de bronce muestra a Carvalho Araújo en una pose decidida, simbolizando la seriedad de su decisión y su coraje.

Carvalho Araújo nació en Oporto, pero creció en Vila Real . Sirvió como teniente primero en la Armada Portuguesa y se hizo famoso por su valiente acción el 14 de octubre de 1918. Durante una misión cerca de las Azores, escoltó al buque de pasajeros São Miguel con el dragaminas Augusto de Castilho . Cuando un submarino alemán, el U-139, comandado por von Arnauld de la Perière, atacó el buque de pasajeros, Carvalho Araújo colocó su barco entre el enemigo y el buque, salvando así la vida de la tripulación. Murió en la acción , justo un mes antes del final de la guerra.
