Mother Church of Our Lady of Remedies, 18th-century Catholic church in Paraty, Brazil.

The Mother Church of Our Lady of Remedies features white walls, a bell tower, and intricate wooden altars adorned with religious art from colonial times.

The construction of this Neoclassical church began during Paraty's economic growth period when the town served as a major port for gold transportation.

The church maintains its role as the central location for Catholic ceremonies, including traditional processions and annual religious festivals in Paraty.

Located in the historic center, the church opens daily for visitors and offers guided tours in Portuguese and English explaining its architectural elements.

During high tide periods, seawater floods the streets around the church, creating reflective surfaces that mirror the white facade and bell tower.
