Igreja de Nossa Senhora das Mercês e Perdões church

Located on top of a small hill with steps leading up to the main entrance, the Nossa Senhora das Mercês e Perdões (Our Lady of Mercies and Forgiveness) church was completed in 1772 before being rebuilt in the mid 19th century. Its white and yellow exterior reveals its colonial past and the vines that creep up the walls circling the church add to its olden charm. The interior is modestly decorated, with an intricate altar surrounded by several religious figures and objects.
