Igreja Nossa Senhora da Conceição, Catholic church in Serra, Brazil

The Nossa Senhora da Conceição Church features two prominent towers added in 1938, housing bells that were previously positioned on the structure's sides.

Priest Bráz Lourenço established the first chapel in 1556 at the indigenous village of Nossa Senhora da Conceição da Serra, near Santa Maria da Vitória River.

The church gardens contain the Mastro pole, a central symbol of the São Benedito Religious and Folk Cycle celebrations held annually on December 26.

The church stands in Praça Barbosa Leão in Serra's central district, with regular masses held in the new church building adjacent to the historical structure.

After 200 years at its original location, the entire church complex, village, and indigenous settlement required relocation due to a malaria outbreak.
