One of the most important churches in Porto
The Igreja do Carmo is one of the most important churches in Porto and is located directly opposite the Clerigos Tower. It belongs to the Third Order of Our Lady of the Carmen and is attached to the Convent and Hospital of the Carmelites. It was built of granite in the mid-18th century by Jose Figueiredo Seixas. The church has two facades: the main three-story front has beautiful decor, with niches containing images of St Elias, and the other side is covered with blue tiles. Inside there are several rococo altarpieces carved by Francisco Pereira Campanhã in the 18th century.
