Igreja de Santa Teresinha do Menino Jesus, Catholic church in Floresta district, Porto Alegre, Brazil

The church building features a modernist facade with three geometric panels above its entrance doors and stands elevated on a podium with a grand staircase.

Construction of the church began in 1946 under Father Atílio Fontana's supervision, and religious services started in 1949 while work was still ongoing.

The interior walls display an extensive collection of murals by artists Aldo Locatelli and Emilio Sessa, depicting scenes from Saint Thérèse of Lisieux's life.

Located at 386 Ramiro Barcelos Street, the church maintains regular Mass schedules and provides religious services for the Catholic community.

The interior structure follows Renaissance church design principles with three naves separated by round arcades, combined with modern architectural elements.
