Seu idealizador foi o arquiteto capuchinho Frei Francisco Maria di Vicenza. Toda sexta feira a Basílica da Penha oferece a se...

👍👍 Do you want time travel? Is here! The city seems to have stopped in time and all thanks to this church that is officially the first church in Brazil according to IPHAN. Built in 1535. And very close to it there is a square where the first inquisition in Brazil took place. But there is another churc...

Green & white landmark chapel built in the 18th century, backed by palms & with sea views.

👍 Construction on this church began in 1580 under the auspices of the Carmelite Order and was the first church of their order in the New World. Like most of the churches in Olinda, it was mostly destroyed during the Dutch invasion of 1631. Reconstruction began in 1654 and in 1704 a large cross was er...

👍👍 Take us to the past, everything is so simple! You have to arrive early to have a place to attend mass. Many people attend mass in the courtyard because it is small.

😠 I went to mass and there was a guy there who I think works in the church who was very ignorant and thought he was the owner of the piece, a horrible attitude for a person who claims to be a servant of God. I'm in doubt if this person serves the same God as me, because the God I serve preaches love...

👍👍 In recent days, we have experienced unique and incredible moments in the presence of the Resurrected Christ and Our Lady, during the Easter Retreat. The Church of Nossa Senhora da Soledade is an example of the beautiful Catholic works spread across the city of Recife. With its unique architecture a...

👍👍 Igreja climatizada , espaçosa . Um local de paz e renovação espiritual. A única ressalva é o local para estacionar veículos, pois a avenida Rui Barbosa é bastante movimentada e acaba dificultando o estacionamento. Fim de semana já fica mais fácil estacionar.

👍👍 Magnificent!!! Impressive!!! Incomparable!!! There are no adjectives to describe this magical place!!! In particular, I would like to thank Mr. Aurélio who explained every detail of the chapel so well, his knowledge is impressive! Whoever goes to Recife cannot miss the opportunity to visit this pla...

👍👍 A nossa Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Loreto é a Paróquia mais linda de Piedade! Amo esse lugar.

👍👍 It was closed. Even though we went there on a weekday at 2pm, the attraction was closed, and it was only possible to observe its exterior, which is beautiful and rich in details. Baroque construction. Very quiet region. I recommend it.

👍👍 The Church is beautiful, the mass was very beautiful, the staff were super welcoming to tourists. I was staying in Muro Alto and the Church is a 15-minute drive away.

👍 Started in the middle of the 15th century, it went through two other denominations until in 1855 it was called Igreja do Divino Espírito Santo. It was listed as a heritage site due to its cultural and historical importance, and has witnessed important events throughout our history.

👍👍 Muito bonita a Igreja. Com guias turísticos que te explicam tudo. Mas atenção, em quase todos os lugares que vc parar o carro, vc paga uns R$ 10,00 e também é abordado por guias que começam a falar sem parar e sem vc pedir, vão falando tanto que no final vc paga uns R$ 30,00. Ou seja, já vai logo di...

😠 I went to mass at night and will not return. The church is using fireworks next to a gas station! It is illegal and extremely dangerous! I don't feel safe going to a place with an imminent explosion hazard. How does the church administration allow this?

👍👍 A Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Amparo é uma igreja localizada na cidade de Olinda, no estado de Pernambuco, mais precisamente no Largo do Amparo. Foi erguida em 1613 e reedificada em 1644 após ser parcialmente destruída por um incêndio causado pelos holandeses, mas os trabalhos continuaram até o fim...

👍👍 Every day the Third Order of Mount Carmel provides us with a Eucharistic celebration at 10am. A beautiful and preserved Church dedicated to Santa Teresa D'Avila. Saint Teresa, pray for us!

Stately Catholic church with soaring ceilings, chandeliers, statuary & a bell tower.
