Igreja da Ordem Terceira do Carmo, Colonial church in Goiana, Brazil.
The Igreja da Ordem Terceira do Carmo features a main nave with four side altars and six niches containing religious statues from different periods.
The church construction began in 1666 when Friar Alberto do Espírito Santo requested permission to build a convent in Goiana due to distance from Olinda.
The church interior displays wooden sculptures from the 16th and 17th centuries, representing important religious figures in Brazilian colonial art.
Located at Praça Frei Caneca in central Goiana, the church opens its doors to visitors interested in exploring its historical architecture.
Local tales mention an underground tunnel connecting the church cross to Igreja do Carmo, supposedly built by Dutch settlers in 1719.
