Historic Churches of Ouro Preto

Ouro Preto’s religious architecture represents the height of the Brazilian Gold Rush, showcasing intricate Baroque and Rococo styles. These 18th-century churches, many designed by the renowned sculptor Aleijadinho, feature elaborate soapstone carvings and ceilings painted by Manuel da Costa Ataíde. From the opulent gold-leaf interiors of the Mother Church of Our Lady of the Pillar to the unique curved facade of the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi, these sites reflect the wealth and artistic sophistication of colonial Minas Gerais.
