Beautiful Baroque church concealing an astonishing chapel with interior walls covered with human skulls and bones, as well as an altarpiece.
This beautiful Baroque church hides an astonishing chapel whose interior walls are covered with skulls and human bones: it is the Capella dos Ossos. Don't miss it during a visit to Faro. In addition to the bones integrated into the walls, you will also observe the graves on the ground. Don't miss the church's altarpiece, with its legion of angels looking at each other. Not to mention the beautiful azulejos.

Église classique et richement décorée, mais avec la particularité de présenter des murs constitués de cranes et d os humains entassés, comme aux catacombes de Paris.

Eglise trapue de l'extérieur mais dont l'intérieur révèle beaucoup de richesses. A ne pas manquer, derrière la sacristie, la chapelle des ossements. Bâtiment des plus curieux décoré avec des os et des crânes.
