Portugese Hall Fdes
The Portuguese Hall of Monterey, known for its rich history, serves as a cultural hub for the local Portuguese community, primarily descended from the Azores. Established in 1943, the hall has hosted a variety of events, including the Festival of the Divine Holy Spirit, and has evolved to accommodate social gatherings, religious ceremonies, and community fundraisers.
In 1949, the organization acquired eleven acres on Casanova Street, leading to the construction of a main dance hall and chapel in 1952, along with additional facilities over the years. The hall continues to be a vital space for both the Portuguese community and other local groups, fostering connections and celebrating heritage.
