Completed in 1763, this 75.6-meter-tall Baroque bell tower is a defining architectural feature designed by the Italian architect Nicolau Nasoni. The structure is an emblematic example of late-baroque style and is classified as a National Monument. A total of 240 steps lead to the top of the tower, which provides a 360-degree panoramic view of the surrounding landscape.
The architectural complex comprises the church, the bell tower, and the Casa da Irmandade (Brotherhood House). The former brotherhood residence has been converted into a museum that houses collections of art and history. The church itself is noted for its elaborate Baroque-inspired design, also credited to Nicolau Nasoni.
The site is open to the public, allowing exploration of the museum, the church, and the tower. Since its completion in the 18th century, the complex has served as a prominent historic landmark and a significant symbol of regional architectural heritage.
