The church's curvaceous shape gives it a special grace, and the interior is simply decorated.

Built in 1765 by and for slaves, the interior decoration is simple, but the building is curved in shape, giving it a special grace. This singularity has no technical or stylistic explanation. The black saints are honoured in this church which is dedicated to them. The statue of Saint Helen, in one of the chapels, is attributed to Aleijadinho. Whether it is a joke or an aesthetic effect, the face of the saint has a masculine and a feminine side.
