Abstract(s)
Quer pela sua riqueza e diversidade, quer pelo perigo de desaparecimento, em que boa parte do património das águas de Angra se encontra, torna-se urgente estudá-lo, referenciá-lo e, principalmente, preservá-lo. Conhecer é mais do que saber que existe. Este trabalho representa um esforço para criar uma ferramenta que, de um modo concertado, ajude à gestão desse
património de valor cultural inestimável.
Este trabalho está estruturado em três partes. Na primeira, pela pesquisa e tratamento das diversas fontes de informação, organizámos uma síntese histórica da evolução dos sistemas de
captação, condução e abastecimento de água em Angra, bem como da sua administração. Na
segunda, apresentamos a inventariação — descrição e distribuição —, o mais exaustiva
possível, das estruturas relacionadas com o património vernáculo património das águas das
cinco freguesias urbanas de Angra do Heroísmo, sejam públicas ou privadas, religiosas ou civis, danificadas ou intatas. Na terceira, e última, apresentamos um conjunto de propostas e estratégias que podem, e devem, ser observadas para a proteção, salvaguarda e valorização
deste património, assim como alguns casos de boas práticas a respeitar.
Julgamos ter criado um importante instrumento que permite efetuar pesquisas de natureza quantitativa e qualitativa, fundamentais para delinear estratégias de intervenção, definir planos
de manutenção preventiva, de salvaguarda e valorização deste património.
Whether for its richness and diversity, whether due to the danger of disappearance, in which much of the waters heritage of Angra lies, it is urgent to study it, reference it, and especially to preserve it. Knowing is more than just be aware of its existence. This paper represents an effort to create a tool that, in a rightly manner, help the management of this priceless heritage cultural value. The present paper is structured in three different parts. In the first part, based on the research and treatment of various sources of information, we’ve organized an historical synthesis of the evolution of the collection, conduction and water supply systems of Angra, as well as its management. In the second part, we present the inventory — description and distribution —, as exhaustive as possible, of the structures related to the vernacular water heritage of the five urban parishes of Angra do Heroísmo, whether public or private, religious or civil, damaged or intact. In the third and final part, we present a set of proposals and strategies that can, and should, be observed for the protection, conservation and enhancement of this heritage, as well as examples of good practices to be followed. We believe we have created an important tool to perform quantitative and qualitative research, fundamental to outline key intervention strategies, and to define preventive, maintenance, safeguarding and enhancement plans, of this heritage.
