Sanctuary of Frei Damiao, Religious monument in Guarabira, Brazil.

The Sanctuary of Frei Damiao is a religious monument featuring a 34-meter statue of a Capuchin friar. The site includes paved pathways and Stations of the Cross created by local artisans along the grounds.

Construction began on 25 March 2000, and the sanctuary was inaugurated on 19 December 2004 before a crowd estimated by the Military Police at more than 80,000 people. The project was designed by architect Alexandre Azêdo, with the museum by Gilberto Guedes and engineer Argemiro Brito de França. In 2007 a decree by Dom Jaime Vieira Rocha elevated it to diocesan sanctuary, and on 29 April 2013 Bishop Lucena entrusted it to the Capuchin Friars Minor.

The sanctuary preserves objects and photographs showing how Frei Damiao lived and worked as a missionary across northeastern Brazil. Visitors can see how people revered him and what items held meaning in his daily life.

Two paved, lit roads lead up to the sanctuary on Serra da Jurema, and the Stations of the Cross line the route, so the climb can be walked station by station. The summit lies 98 km from João Pessoa. From the top, the whole of Guarabira and towns within a 50 km radius are visible.

The statue stands 34 metres tall in total: the figure of Frei Damião is 22 metres and its pedestal 12 metres. It is the third tallest statue in Brazil, after Christ the Redeemer and the Santa Rita de Cássia monument in Rio Grande do Norte.
