Скачать или смотреть Massangano, Angola

On November 2, 2012 the Angola Field Group visited Massangano, the site of one of Angola's oldest forts, built in 1582 to use as a way station for slaves being traded from Kwanza Norte. During Holland's brief occupation of the seat of government of Angola, from 1641 to 1648, the Portuguese took refuge in the fort here. The Massangano fort is located on the banks of the Kwanza River 20 km east of Dondo and about 2 hours south of Luanda by car. For photos of Massangano Fort visit http://angolafieldgroup.com.

As shown in the beginning of this video, a stone's throw from the fort is the restored Church of Nossa Senhora da Victoria.

Also visited and featured in this video, the remains of Novo Oeiras, the iron foundry on the Lucala River which was erected in 1768 by the Marquis of Lombal, the progressive and controversial Prime Minister of Portugal.
