    Igreja NS do Rosário e São Benedito dos Homens Pretos

    Igreja NS do Rosário e São Benedito dos Homens Pretos was built in 1725 by and for slaves. Renovated in 1857, the church has gilded wooden altars dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary, St Benedict and St John. The pineapple-like chandelier base in the roof is a symbol of prosperity.
