Parish Church of Saint Antony, Colonial church in Ouro Branco, Brazil.

The Parish Church of Saint Antony features stone columns, corners, and balconies on its facade, incorporating an arch and trilobed oculus design.

The church construction began before 1717, with the first wedding ceremony recorded that year, and the final building works concluded in 1779.

The interior displays illusionist paintings by Master Ataide, depicting Saint Anthony, the Virgin Mary, and Baby Jesus in rococo style.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and remains an active religious center, allowing visitors to explore its architectural details and religious artifacts.

The main altar contains a spherical tabernacle with a sun symbol on its small door, representing Christ as the light of the world.
