Church of Carmo, Catholic church in São Vicente, Portugal

The Church of Carmo exhibits a grand lateral façade adorned with intricate azulejos panels created by Italian artist Silvestre Silvestri in 1912.

Built between 1756 and 1768 under architect José de Figueiredo Seixas, the church represents Portuguese religious architecture of the late Baroque period.

The interior contains numerous religious artworks, including detailed gilded carved altars and statues of Saint Teresa of Avila and Saint Joseph.

Located at Rua do Carmo, the church remains open daily from 9:00 to 18:00, offering guided tours of its main areas and catacombs.

A narrow house stands between Church of Carmo and Carmelitas Church, constructed due to regulations preventing two churches from sharing adjacent walls.

Location: São Vicente

Part of: Igreja do Carmo e edifício do antigo Convento Carmelita
