Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Pena
Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Pena, Colonial church in Jacarepaguá, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil
The Igreja de Nossa Senhora da Pena features classical architectural elements with a pediment, bell tower, and a single nave with side corridors.
The church foundation dates back to the second half of the 18th century, when Father Manuel de Araújo established the religious structure.
The main altar displays late Rococo carvings and houses a Baroque statue of the Virgin Mary with Baby Jesus.
The church walls contain ceramic tiles depicting scenes from the Virgin Mary's life, while the nave illustrates episodes from Christ's journey.
The sacristy holds a portrait of Dom Pedro II and maintains a collection of votive offerings from the 18th and 19th centuries.
