Parish Church of Our Lady of Victory, Baroque church in São Cristóvão, Brazil.

The Parish Church of Our Lady of Victory features two bell towers adorned with white Portuguese tiles and stands on an elevated position in São Cristóvão.

Constructed in 1608 by Dom Constantino Barradas, the fourth Bishop of Bahia, this church became the first parish church in Sergipe during the pontificate of Pope Paul V.

The interior architecture maintains simplicity while displaying important artworks by José Teófilo de Jesus that represent regional religious expression.

The church functions as an active religious center within the Archdiocese of Aracaju and maintains regular services for the local congregation.

The structure underwent substantial modifications after the Dutch occupation period of 1637-1645, receiving financial support for renovation in 1702.
