Monument to Manuel Cerveira Pereira

Among Benguela's monuments and statuary, the statue to the city's founder, Manuel Cerveira Pereira, stands out, which, bordering the District Government Palace, displays the bust of the honoree, attached to a vertical volume with a triangular profile.

Work prior to 1960, it follows the line of celebratory and historicist monuments of the Estado Novo, erected in stone, with formal elements of vertical proportions, which made the Monument to the Discoveries in Lisbon and the Henrique patterns spread across countless cities in Africa famous.

He held the position of Captain-General in the Captaincy-General of the Kingdom of Angola, twice, the first between 1603 and 1606, having been preceded by João Rodrigues Coutinho and succeeded by Manuel Pereira Forjaz, the second term was between 1615 and 1617, having was preceded by Bento Banha Cardoso and succeeded by Luís Mendes de Vasconcelos.

Curiosity:
Manuel Cerveira Pereira founded the Fort of São Filipe de Benguela in 1617.
Next to the fortification, a nucleus of settlement was established that would later become the capital of the new Portuguese domain in the south of Angola, the Kingdom of Benguela, which was administered autonomously from 1617 until 1869.
