Forte de São Pedro (Horta)

O Forte de São Pedro localizava-se no lugar da Ribeira, na freguesia da Praia do Almoxarife, concelho da Horta, na ilha do Faial, nos Açores.

Em posição dominante sobre o seu trecho do litoral, constituiu-se em uma fortificação destinada à defesa contra os ataques de piratas e corsários, outrora frequentes nesta região do oceano Atlântico.
