Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Livramento dos Homens Pardos, Colonial church in Recife, Brazil.

Built in 1694, the church began as a small chapel dedicated to Nossa Senhora do Livramento before undergoing major renovations in 1830.
The church served as a religious center for pardos, representing a large portion of Recife's population during colonial times.
