Terreiro Tumbeci is a sacred space located at Rua Nossa Senhora da Conceição where spiritual ceremonies and community gatherings happen throughout the year. The site provides rooms and areas dedicated to rituals and meetings that form the heart of religious life here.
This terreiro was founded in 2007 under the direction of Geruna Passos Santos and follows the Angola nation traditions of this faith. The establishment represented a continuation of African religious practices in the city.
This space serves as a religious center where rituals, music, and dances keep alive traditions from West African peoples. Visitors can experience the living practice of these beliefs during gatherings and celebrations.
