Church of Our Lady of the Rosary of the Black People

Church of Our Lady of the Rosary of the Black People, Colonial Catholic church in Campina, Brazil.

The Church of Our Lady of the Rosary of the Black People is a church in the Campina district featuring two stone towers with rectangular belfries and circular openings. Its blue limestone facade contrasts distinctly against the plain masonry walls that surround it.

The church was founded in 1682 as a simple chapel of taipa (rammed earth). In the 1720s it was rebuilt and enlarged by enslaved Black workers following a project by the Italian architect Antonio Landi. In 1950 it was listed by IPHAN among the sacred-historical monuments of Belém.

The parish was founded to bring enslaved Africans into the Catholic faith, and its full name, Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Homens Pretos, records that purpose. Mass in the Tridentine rite is still celebrated here every Sunday at 10:30 by members of the Instituto Bom Pastor.

The church stands at the corner of Rua Padre Prudêncio and Rua Aristides Lobo in the Campina district. Tridentine Mass is celebrated every Sunday at 10:30 by members of the Instituto Bom Pastor, so that morning slot draws a congregation and is not the best moment for a quiet visit.

The church was founded in 1682 as a simple chapel of taipa (rammed earth), and rebuilt in the 1720s to a design by the Italian architect Antonio Landi, with the work carried out by enslaved Black labourers. It was listed by IPHAN in 1950 and is one of the sacred-historical monuments of Belém.
