On the night of October 21st to 22nd, 1522, the town of Vila Franca, the capital at the time, was destroyed by a landslide caused by an earthquake. The entire population of around 5,000 people died. The capital was then moved to Ponta Delgada.

Even though some of the houses here are in a state of disrepair, the seafront of Vila Franca do Campo is beautiful to look at
