Igreja das Chagas do Seráfico Pai São Francisco, Colonial church in Glicério, São Paulo, Brazil.

The church features an octagonal dome decorated with paintings from the late 18th century and multiple side altars in Rococo carvings.

The construction of the church started in 1676 under Friar João de São Francisco and opened its doors to the public in September 1787.

The church represents the remaining architectural example from the 18th century in São Paulo's urban area, designed by Santos-born architect Joaquim Pinto de Oliveira.

Located at Largo de São Francisco 173, the church underwent a seven-year restoration process completed in 2014, focusing on roof, floor, and decorative elements.

The building combines rammed earth construction technique with stone foundation, displaying Portuguese colonial engineering methods in religious architecture.
