House of the Seven Deaths
House of the Seven Deaths, Colonial house in Santo Antônio Além do Carmo, Salvador, Brazil
The House of the Seven Deaths stands as a three-level colonial structure with Portuguese tiles covering its main facade on Rua Ribeiro dos Santos.
Built in the early 1600s, this residence gained its name following a tragic incident in 1755 when four people, including Father Manuel de Almeida, were killed.
The building incorporates Portuguese, Spanish, and Moorish architectural elements, featuring a central courtyard with marble floors and 17th-century decorative tiles.
Located at Rua Ribeiro Dos Santos 24, the property now functions as a school and remains closed to public visits due to preservation requirements.
The internal courtyard contained a historical bath-house decorated with shell fragments, demonstrating the refined tastes of colonial-era Brazilian architecture.
