Beautiful church, well worth the visit!

Beautiful church full of history
Beautiful church with golden interior. Ouro Preto has a lot of churches but this one is without a doubt the most impressive. You do have to pay to enter but it is definitely worth it.
Great place. Well organised
Amazing historic church with gold.
You need to buy ticket to enter not at entrance, at house around 10meter from here.
Fee is 10BRL per adult, 5BRL per kids.
It is much more worth than fee.
If you visit Ouro Preto, you must plan to visit here.
By the way, there are hills around there if you go from Tiradentes plaza.
It’s better to think time and energy.
So much for back breaking sweat and forced labour to produce this masterpiece gold plated art work. And yet the slaves were not allowed to worship here for centuries
A beautiful basilic and full of history and cultural significance. A jewel in the Brazilian Crown that was built on the back of the gold riches and the enslaved African people. But, like anywhere in the world, it's part of its history and should be celebrated taking all into account. History cannot be erased or ignored, it must be studied and absorbed us.
Amazing Baroque style church with lots of ornamentation and gold leafing. Well worth the visit.

Museu da Inconfidência is a long-standing museum housed in the former municipal headquarters and old jail of Ouro Preto, dating back to 1784-1854. It pays tribute to the victims of the failed Inconfidencia Mineira movement, which sought independence from Portugal in 1789. The museum features exhibits such as Tiradentes' tomb and manuscripts related to the revolt.
Worth going! Learnt a lot about the cultural and historical aspects of Ouro Preto!

Great place where you can see the history of the city and a lot of beautiful things. Highly recommended
Excellent person and professional! I have already tried the Samadhi Striking method and it is very powerful because it is possible to release my stress with the training and calm myself with the meditation at the end of the session. I highly recommend it!
Highly recommend. Compelling story-telling about early colonial and revolution history. Signs have English translations which are a bit archaic, and hard to understand, but give a basic story.
This museum had a lot of details on Ouro Preto’s history. It was free! There were English translations but sometimes a bit hard to follow. They allowed people to take pics as well. Highly recommend this place.
Great piece of history of Mina Gerais and Ouro Preto.
the place is very quiet, and there is rubbish scattered everywhere
A shame that photos are not allowed, but it is a great place! I enjoyed the museum and the glimpse it gives into the history of Ouro Preto and Brazil.
The staff was super friendly and worked hard to accommodate the disability on one of the people in our party.

Historical place
The Church of Saint Francis of Assisi is an 18th-century Roman Catholic church renowned for its exquisite design and lavishly painted interior. Constructed in 1768 by the celebrated Baroque artist Aleijadinho, it stands as one of Ouro Preto's most iconic architectural landmarks.
Very beautiful place. It's a bit out of the way but I highly recommend visiting if you're in the area. We made the 3 hour drive from Viçosa and only stayed for the day, but the six hours on the road were worth seeing such a magnificent and historic town. The church has a stunning mural on the ceiling. I hope to make it back to visit again one day.

The Igreja de São Francisco de Assis in Ouro Preto, Brazil, is a Baroque Catholic church with Rococo elements, celebrated as a masterpiece of Aleijadinho, who designed its facade and interior features. It also houses iconic paintings by Mestre Ataíde, such as the famous ceiling of the nave. The church was recognized as a historic site by IPHAN and included among the Seven Wonders of Portuguese Origin in 2009.
Constructed by the Ordem Terceira de São Francisco de Assis, its building began in 1765 and progressed under Aleijadinho’s direction, with significant contributions from other artists. Key stages of construction included the chapel-mor (1774), the altar-mor (1790–1794), and later additions like lateral altars (1829–1890). Structural issues necessitated additional work, including side arcades in 1801.
The church underwent various restorations, including 20th-century efforts led by IPHAN, ensuring its preservation as part of Ouro Preto's UNESCO World Heritage status.
Beautiful church, it’s one of the most visited in the area, so keep that in mind
A gem of Baroque architecture nestled atop a sloping square, this church is a visual delight—especially for photography enthusiasts. Your lens can’t help but capture the ornate façade, sculpted by Aleijadinho, bathed in sunlight and shadow.
What makes the visit even more memorable is the vibrant soapstone handicraft market right in front of the church. Stalls overflowing with local artisanal sculptures offer an authentic touch and a chance to take home a piece of tradition.
A perfect pairing of art, history, and local craftsmanship — a must-visit in Ouro Preto.
Nice to visit, but not the greatest church on earth. Like every other church in Ouro Preto, you have to go pay an entrance fee, either cash or via PIX.
Church with a incredible amount of art work. You can spend hours looking at the ceiling, it’s mesmerizing. The altar is also full very fine craftsmanship. On the back you also have a tiny museum of Aleijadinho’s art work during his life
It is a beautiful church! It was ornated by Aleijadinho! It is very beautiful and intetesting! It really worths a visit! The visit costs 10 reais. There are another church in town to visit for free. Both were ornate by him! This one is more beautiful! Visit both!
Visit this church, you will NOT be disappointed.
It is a testament of the powerful craftsmanship of Aleijadinho, the man who sculpted without his hands. He sculpted the altar while not being able to attend mess on this church, being black and black people where not allowed inside churches.
The church also holds the painting of Mestre Ataíde, the painting in the ceiling that is his most well known piece.
This church is a powerful expression of Ouro Preto's and Brazil's faith and artistry.

Church
Cemitério da Ordem Terceira de São Francisco de Assis is located next to the Church of St. Francis of Assisi in Ouro Preto, designed by Aleijadinho. This cemetery was built near churches due to the ban on burying the dead inside them during colonial times. It is a place where only white and wealthy people from that era were buried, reflecting the respect for the deceased at that time.
(Translated by Google) Cemetery next to the beautiful and famous Church of São Francisco de Assis, designed by Aleijadinho.
With the prohibition of burying the dead inside churches, cemeteries began to grow near the churches. Only rich white people from the colonial era were buried there.
The tombs give an idea of the respect that the dead were given at the time. There is a small covered area and the entrance gate to the cemetery stands out.
It is a pity that it is closed to visitors.
Rating: 9.0
(Original)
Cemitério ao lado da bela e famosa Igreja de São Francisco de Assis, projetada por Aleijadinho.
Com a proibição de enterrar os mortos dentro das igrejas, iniciasse a contração de cemitérios próximo às igrejas. Onde eram enterrados somente os brancos e ricos da época da colônia.
Os túmulos dão dimensão do respeito que os mortos tinham na época. Possui uma pequena parte coberta e tem destaque o portão de entrada do cemitério.
Uma pena que o mesmo encontra-se fechado para visitação.

(Translated by Google) The cemetery itself, which appears in the 1975 film Enigma for Demons, starring José Mayer, is curious: in the past, the dead were buried inside and then next to churches. When I visited, unfortunately, it was closed once again and had garbage bags inside. The back part, outside, is used as a "bathroom". It is sacrilege to abandon a cemetery where people are buried!
(Original)
O cemitério em si, que aparece no filme Enigma Para Demônios, de 1975, com José Mayer, é curioso: antigamente os mortos eram enterrados dentro e, após, ao lado de igrejas. Quando visitei, infelizmente, estava mais uma vez fechado e ostentava sacos de lixo em seu interior. A parte dos fundos, do lado de fora, é usada como "banheiro". Sacrilégio o abandono de um campo santo onde estão enterradas pessoas!

The Church of Santa Efigenia is a must-visit historical site in Brazil, known for its captivating history and stunning architecture. Situated atop a hill, the 18th-century church offers magnificent panoramic views of the city from its churchyard. Legend has it that the church was constructed by slaves, including one who would later be called Chico King. This iconic landmark provides visitors with an opportunity to delve into Brazil's rich history and is definitely worth exploring for its cultural significance and breathtaking vistas.
One more place to visit and discover more about the Brazil history. Nice to visit.

The Igreja Matriz de Santa Efigênia, located in Ouro Preto, Brazil, is an important Baroque church with strong Afro-Brazilian cultural elements. Built by the Confraternity of the Rosary, composed of enslaved and freed black individuals, its construction began in 1734 and concluded in 1785. Various notable artists participated in its development, including Aleijadinho, who contributed a soapstone sculpture for the facade.
The church has a unique rectangular floor plan, innovative architectural features, and symbolic decorations, such as a representation of a Black pope in the chancel. Over the years, it underwent several modifications and restorations, including a major restoration from 2008 to 2014 to address structural and decorative issues. It was officially listed as a historic site in 1939.
This was the least impressive of the five churches that I visited. If you are short on time I would recommend skipping this one. However, the views from the viewpoint next door are very good.
Beautiful part of Brazilian cultural, religious and historical significance. Another work of art in the heart of Minas Gerais and Ouro Preto. A must see.
Ok
This place is so amazing, pure history.

Museu de Ciência e Técnica da Escola de Minas da UFOP is a must-visit in Ouro Preto. The building itself is impressive, and though it's well-maintained, some repairs are needed. The museum boasts excellent collections on natural history and mineralogy, showcasing a remarkable inventory of stones, ores, and gems. However, due to reduced funding for public universities, some exhibitions are no longer operational.
(Translated by Google) I had the opportunity to take the Humanist course, offered by UFOP, inside this Museum in some of its many rooms. I saw several statues made of what looked like marble from afar, beautiful places under maintenance and impeccable views from the windows. I am anxious for the reopening, especially for the observatory.

(Translated by Google) The museum is located in the former governor's house, built in the mid-18th century. It is divided into areas such as minerology, metallurgy and natural sciences. Some collections are large and interesting, such as the room that houses crystals, meteorites and others. Others, however, are more superficial, with a few replicas and little information. Just seeing the inside of this historic building is worth the visit.
(Original)
O museu funciona na antiga casa dos governadores, construída em meados do século XVIII. Divide-se em áreas, como minerologia, metalurgia e ciências naturais. Algumas coleções são amplas e interessantes, como a sala que guarda cristais, aerolitos e outros. Outras, contudo, são mais superficiais, com algumas réplicas e poucas informações. Conhecer o interior desse prédio histórico já vale a visita.
(Translated by Google) They are painting the outside, but they have closed it to visitors because they say it is falling down 👀 they don't have enough funds to fix it inside so they don't know how long it will remain closed.
(Original)
Estão pintando por fora, mas fecharam para visitação interna porque dizem estar caindo 👀 não tem verba suficiente para arrumar internamente então não sabem quanto tempo continuará fechado.
(Translated by Google) The site has enormous potential for further exploration: it has an excellent collection of knowledge about natural history and geology, complemented by a magnificent inventory of stones, minerals and gems. Some of the exhibits that were previously on display, however, are no longer in operation due to the budget cuts to public universities, which also greatly limited the number of staff and researchers. It's a shame, because several projects were being developed there!
(Original)
O lugar tem um potencial enorme para ser melhor explorado: conta com um excelente acervo de conhecimento sobre história natural e geologia, complementado pelo magnífico inventário de pedras, minérios e gemas. Algumas das exposições que antes eram expostas, no entanto, não estão mais em funcionamento devido ao contingenciamento de verbas as universidades públicas, o que limitou em muito também o quadro de funcionários e pesquisadores. Uma pena, pois vários projetos estavam sendo desenvolvidos no local!
(Translated by Google) It was an interesting experience. The last exhibition is remarkable, from the most well-known and beautiful precious and semi-precious stones to the smallest and most unknown ones. It is worth visiting and learning some details about mining.
(Original)
Foi uma experiência interessante. A última exposição é marcante, desde as pedras preciosas e semipreciosas mais conhecidas e bonitas até as menores e desconhecidos. Vale a pena visitar e conhecer alguns detalhes da mineração.
(Translated by Google) First of all, it's worth it. The museum was opened in the 19th century and its purpose from the beginning was to teach mineralogy. Inside the museum, you can access some areas, such as mining, natural history and the mineralogy room (a fascinating place), for a small fee. If you can find a good guide to help you, that would be great, but don't miss the opportunity to read the information about the exhibition.
(Original)
Pra começo de conversa, vale a pena. O museu foi inaugurado no século 19, seu objetivo desde o princípio era para o ensino de Mineralogia. Dentro do museu é possível, por um valor irrisório, acessar alguns setores, como a mineração, história natural e a sala de mineralogia (lugar apaixonante). Se conseguir um boa guia para auxiliar, será ótimo, mas não perca a oportunidade de ler as informações da exposição.

Casa Aleijadinho is a must-visit destination known for its stunning churches, including the Carmo Church and the Pilar Church, which is adorned with gold and holds the status of a Basilica. The Sao Francisco de Assis Church is considered a baroque masterpiece, featuring paintings by Mestre Athayde and carvings by Aleijadinho. This location was the first in Brazil to be designated as a UNESCO World Heritage site due to its historical significance.
I arrived around 6pm and very kindly they still offered me a free guided tour in Portuguese before they close. The guide João Paulo was very helpful and informative and he is also an official guide for Ouro Preto if anyone should need a guide for other attractions. It was a nice visit to learn more about the history of the town. Highly recommended!

Aleijadinho’s house tour was great! Got to see a pretty well preserved heritage house, the tour was in Portuguese (my friend translated for me an english speaker).
Only thing I didn’t really understand was the place sells Cachaça (mini tasting session post house tour). Not sure what was the link between selling Cachaça in Aleijadinho’s house when he didn’t brew Cachaca.
Learned a bit of history and heard some very nice stories. We were impressed by how well our guide could speak english. Overall, the experience worthed it!
I had a wonderful tour here! They even could provide me with an excellent English tour guide. It’s a very interesting place to visit.
You can visit it for free, it's quite interesting house, showing how people were leaving in oast in this city. Plus you can buy good cashaça there
An interesting tour of an 18th century house featuring lots of objects from that time.
Lovely and charming. There is no entrance fee so everyone should visit it!

Very impressive and unusual Baroque church, showcasing different phases of the style in Brazil. It originated as a chapel in 1699, but the temple was renovated a couple of times. The last restoration took 10 years, from February 2013 until January 2020.
Jorge R — Google review
Incredible interior. The alters were rococo and just incredible. Part of a three church ticket. Well worth the visit.
The Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Conceição de Antônio Dias in Ouro Preto, Brazil, began as a chapel around 1699, built by bandeirante Antônio Dias and later elevated to a Matriz in 1705. A new structure replaced the deteriorated original in 1727, with construction led by Manuel Francisco Lisboa, father of Aleijadinho, both buried in the church. The building features a design typical of early 18th-century churches and includes unique interior spaces such as ambulatories and tribunes.
Construction faced delays, with significant progress made between 1741 and 1770, including intricate carvings attributed to notable artisans. Maintenance and enhancements occurred through the 19th century, including the addition of an adro and iron gates. Several religious brotherhoods were active in the Matriz, though much of their documentation is lost. The church remains a historic and cultural landmark.
The Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Conceição in Ouro Preto is a valuable artistic and historical landmark, showcasing elements from three Baroque phases of Brazil-Colônia. Its interior decoration, attributed to Manoel Francisco Lisboa, features a richly detailed altar-mor with twisted columns, angels, and a transitioning style from Joanino Baroque to Rococo. The nave's eight older altars embody dense, high-relief carvings typical of the Joanino style, adorned with floral motifs, mythical creatures, and cherubs.
The church also contains symbolic velários, oval panels depicting apostles and saints, and an extensive statuary collection, including prominent figures like Nossa Senhora da Conceição and saints of the altar-mor. Its unique features, such as altars adorned with carrancas, reflect its distinct cultural and artistic heritage.
Interesting display on the restoration process.
Nice place to visit

(Translated by Google) Enchanting. After many years of waiting for the church's restoration, I was able to visit this jewel of Minas Gerais' Baroque style. The church is spectacular. The carvings and imagery are fascinating. Brilliance and beauty are everywhere. Not to mention the representative collection of sacred elements typical of a Baroque church. There is also a small museum dedicated to Aleijadinho, one of the great artists of our Baroque period. And at the foot of the altar of Our Lady of Good Death lies his grave.

Há também um pequeno museu dedicado ao Aleijadinho, um dos grandes artistas do nosso barroco. E aos pés do altar de Nossa Senhora da Boa Morte encontra-se a sua campa.

In the heart of Ouro Preto, Brazil, stands the Church of Nossa Senhora das Mercês e da Misericórdia, also known as Merces de Cima.

(Translated by Google) This church is located at the top of the hill, just before the entrance to the historic center. It has a very pleasant lookout point with a beautiful view of the city.
One detail that stood out is that, in the cemetery next to it, a crime occurred in 2001 that shook the city: the murder of tourist Aline. She was found dead on the cemetery grounds, which attracted the attention of curious onlookers seeking supernatural contact there at night.
I should emphasize here that this is a church that is difficult to visit, as its opening hours vary. I didn't have the opportunity to find it open.

Um detalhe que ficou marcado é que, no cemitério que fica na sua lateral, ocorreu em 2001 um crime que mexeu com a cidade; o homicídio da turista Aline, ela foi encontrada sem vida nas dependências do cemitério, o que despertou atenção de curiosos que buscavam algum contato sobrenatural por ali à noite.
Ressalto aqui que trata-se de uma igreja de difícil visitação, pois tem seu horário alternado. Não tive a oportunidade em encontrá-la aberta.
We didn't enter but it's perfect for sunsets seeing.

Nestled in the heart of Ouro Preto, the Igreja do Senhor Bom Jesus de Matosinhos e São Miguel e Almas is a captivating blend of history and artistry. This church, with its origins tracing back to around 1763 during the gold rush era, features an impressive portico crafted by Aleijadinho that dramatically depicts Saint Michael battling against the fires of hell, surrounded by souls from purgatory.
(Translated by Google) From a book opened and signed by Tomás Antônio Gonzaga in 1785, it is known that the chapel was dedicated to the Most Holy Hearts of Jesus, Mary and Joseph, Lord of Matosinhos and Saint Michael and Souls.
Construction began in 1771, Rodrigo José Freitas Bretas mentions Aleijadinho as the author of the magnificent entrance, notes in the book of the Brotherhood (1778) refer to the preparation of the carved stone for the frontispiece: "carving the stonework", preparing the stones for the "óclo" (eyeglass), "the windows and the cross". Inside, there are paintings by Mestre Ataíde.
The most admirable highlight of the monument is concentrated on the façade, especially on the main door where there are sculptures attributed to Aleijadinho: The niche that houses the image of Saint Michael the Archangel, a bas-relief that represents purification by fire.
(Original)
De livro aberto e rubricado por Tomás Antônio Gonzaga em 1785, sabe-se que a capela era dedicada aos Santíssimos Corações de Jesus, Maria e José, Senhor do Matosinhos e São Miguel e Almas.
Construção iniciada em 1771, Rodrigo José Freitas Bretas menciona o Aleijadinho como o autor da magnífica portada, anotações no livro da Irmandade (1778), fazem referência à preparação da pedra lavrada para o frontispício: "lavrar a cantaria", preparar as pedras para o " óclo" ( óculo), "as janelas e a cruz". No interior, encontram-se pinturas do Mestre Ataíde.
O mais admirável destaque do monumento concentra-se na fachada, especialmente na porta principal onde se encontram esculturas atribuídas a Aleijadinho: O nicho que abriga a imagem de São Miguel Arcanjo, um baixo-relevo, que representa a purificação pelo fogo.

(Translated by Google) Interesting church from the outside, with a traditional Ouro Preto school. It's a shame that the church is closed and in urgent need of renovation. When I was there, they said that part of the church's internal roof had collapsed. It's worth visiting the cemetery at the back of the church. Very nice view.

Visitors can explore rooms decorated to reflect their historical appearance and view a poignant exhibition featuring slave paraphernalia in the basement.
Very interesting museus about the gold age, national money bank and slavery history
Isaías S — Google review
Free admission and a large spacious museum with English signs make this a winner. This place is soaked in history, take the tine to visit while in Ouro Preto.
Worthwhile to look around and learn about money and gold. One of their employees showed us around. She was so enthusiastic and showed us every room!
This is the largest and grandest building in town. It's history as a residence and mint is documented.. there are exhibits on coinage and the town's history. There are also spaces to show how the rooms may have looked in original use. The most poignant are the exhibition s in the basement which contain slave paraphernalia.
The architecture is great. It is a museum like no other but I think it should have more digital features to make it more interesting.
Very interesting building (archtectcure and engineering wise), a broad collection of many different "currencies" used through out the years (due to a chronical inflation process that ended in the middle of the 1990's with the inauguration of then Real as Brazilian currency and inflation control)
This is certainly one of the best museums to visit in Ouro Preto. Feel the colonial and baroque atmosphere of ancient Brazil.
A glimpse in one of the first financial buildings of the country, it is possible to visit the building and the garden for free it also has an exhibition of colonial artifacts, Very well located.

Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Pretos is one of the many churches in Ouro Preto, each with its own unique history and architectural style. This church, dedicated to the Lady of the Rosary and also honoring Saint Iphigenia, was built between 1733 and 1785 in Antonio Dias. It is said to have been commissioned by Chico Rei, a former slave who became a wealthy mine owner and freed many others.
A very nice church. The best thing is that we were allowed inside on 25th December. The place was decorated very nicely and the father was happy to hear that we were from India. He welcomed us.

I'm not religious, but learning a little more about the symbols, images, and customs was really cool. The collection is well-maintained, and the staff is attentive. The visit (which is paid, but the price is quite low) is quick. It's worth it.

Minas do Palácio Velho stands as a testament to the rich and often somber history of gold mining in Minas Gerais, particularly during the 18th century. Nestled at the foot of Tapanhuacanga Hill, this site offers visitors a glimpse into the original techniques used for gold extraction in Ouro Preto. Unlike more adventurous mines, this location emphasizes its historical significance.
It was a lot of fun to learn the history of how they mined gold. The tour guided was full of knowledge
Ted A — Google review
Massively overpriced. The guide was good and informative but the tour is really brief. A couple of small caves. Really disappointing given the cost.
The medieval mining methods here are exceptional. The rock beddings and striations are followed closely in chiselling.
Wonderful guides, very informative. Loved it!
Great place. Watch you they try to make you pay 70 then they go gown to 30 ;)
Not much explanation provided in the mine about its operation.
This mine is less of a "adventurous" one and a more "historical" one. The guides are well educated in the history of enslavement in Brazil and, specially, in the mining industry at the time in Ouro Preto. We can walk around the mines with in deep explanation of how the mining process was, how the slaves worked and what each part of the mine was there for.
I was very impressed about some of the information given. I recommend this mine especially for those with kids who are more interested in history and don't want to walk on tight spots and tunnels.
Nice tour guides, pretty cool experience. Check ahead of you need English speaker

Morro São Sebastião Lookout, located in Ouro Preto, offers breathtaking panoramic views of Tiradentes square and the historical neighborhood of Antonio Dias. The best times to visit are early morning or late afternoon. Accessible by a steep street near the Astronomical Observatory, it's recommended to wear comfortable shoes for the climb. While some suggest hiring a local driver or taking a guided tour due to the challenging terrain, others find the view well worth the effort and recommend driving there directly.
Very good view, I think it’s the best place to ove re look the whole town, just you need to climb up the steep slope, and it’s not friendly for people who have leg or knees problem. So if you ‘re healthy and do like exercise, it’s a pretty good experience for cardio 🤓
Do wear comfortable shoes are important 😺

Beautiful view of the city. About an hour walking up a very steep hill.
A bit long steep drive on pavement to go to the mirante. Very nice viewpoint, especially with the night lights, to see the historical city.
Really awesome view of the area! It's not easy to get it since the street is really steep but it's worth the effort.
Very steep uphill. Don't try to drive there, instead hire a local professional driver. Better to have a local tour guide.
It’s worth visiting but please drive there! Unless you have plenty of time
Nice view of the city. Getting there by car is not for the faint of heart.
Such a beautiful view but sadly, it's completely abandoned and neglected. Needs maintenance, lots of it!

Capela de Nossa Senhora do Rosário de Padre Faria, also known as Capela do Padre Faria, is a small Catholic temple located in Ouro Preto, Brazil. It holds historical significance as the place where the city of Ouro Preto originated. The chapel features an external wooden bell and a pleasant surrounding area.

(Translated by Google) Chapel of Father Faria
The Chapel of Our Lady of the Rosary of the White Men, better known as the Chapel of Father Faria, is a small Catholic temple in the Brazilian city of Ouro Preto, built during the colonial period, whose external modesty contrasts with its rich interior decoration.
Around 1740, this chapel also began to house the white brothers of the Brotherhood of the Rosary, pressured by the blacks to leave the Church of Santa Efigênia.
The Chapel of Father Faria is today the only example in the urban perimeter of Ouro Preto that represents the primitive constructions of the Serra de Ouro Preto, and is undoubtedly the most exquisite of all.
The ceiling depicts the coronation of the Virgin by angels, and the four side panels depict key scenes from the life of Mary: the Visitation, the Annunciation, the Adoration of the Shepherds and the Flight into Egypt.

Capela do Padre Faria
Capela de Nossa Senhora do Rosário dos Homens Brancos, mais conhecida como Capela do Padre Faria, é um pequeno templo católico da cidade brasileira de Ouro Preto, erguido no período colonial, cuja modéstia externa contrasta com sua rica decoração interior.
Por volta de 1.74Ø, essa capela passa também a abrigar os irmãos brancos da Irmandade do Rosário, pressionados pelos pretos a se retirarem da Igreja de Santa Efigênia.
A capela do Padre Faria constitui-se hoje no único exemplar no perímetro urbano de Ouro Preto representativo das construções primitivas da Serra de Ouro Preto, sendo, sem dúvida, a mais requintada de todas.
No forro está representada a coroação da Virgem pelos anjos e nos quatro painéis laterais cenas capitais da vida de Maria: a Visitação, a Anunciação, a Adoração do pastores e a Fuga para o Egito.

(Translated by Google) Simply WONDERFUL. I am very grateful to the guy who gave the explanations. It is not just about pharmacy, it is the history of science in Ouro Preto! It was not on the program and it was worth it! The tour lasts about 1h30. It shows experiments from 130 years ago!!!! Extraction methods and everything else!
(Original)
Simplesmente MARAVILHOSO. Muito agradecido ao rapaz que deu as explicações. Não eh só farmácia, eh a história da ciência de ouro preto! Não estava na programação e valeu muito! Em média 1h30 de passeio. Mostra experimentos de 130 anos!!!! Formas de extração e tudo mais!
(Translated by Google) The facade of the Pharmacy Museum is charming in its own right — historic architecture that enchants at first sight. Even before entering, you can already sense the cultural value and importance of this preserved space in the heart of Ouro Preto. A true colonial gem.
(Original)
A fachada do Museu de Farmácia é um charme à parte — arquitetura histórica que encanta à primeira vista. Mesmo antes de entrar, já é possível sentir o valor cultural e a importância desse espaço preservado no coração de Ouro Preto. Uma verdadeira joia colonial.
(Translated by Google) The museum boasts a very interesting collection and is undoubtedly an important space for preserving memory and culture. However, it's quite frustrating to realize that it's closed on weekends. This limitation makes access difficult and often impossible for a large portion of the population, especially those who work or study during weekday hours.
(Original)
O museu possui um acervo muito interessante e é, sem dúvida, um importante espaço de preservação da memória e da cultura. No entanto, é bastante frustrante perceber que ele não funciona aos finais de semana. Essa limitação dificulta e muitas vezes impossibilita o acesso de grande parte da população, especialmente de quem trabalha ou estuda em horário comercial durante a semana.
(Translated by Google) It's well-maintained from the outside, but it's closed to visitors due to renovations inside. It's located right in the center.
(Original)
Por fora está bem cuidado mas está fechado para visitação por estarem reformando internamente. Fica bem no centro.
(Translated by Google) The best museum I've been to in Ouro Preto! I loved everything and the staff were very polite. I was enchanted by the museum.
(Original)
De ouro preto o melhor museu que fui! Amei tudo e os funcionarios muito educados. Fiquei encantada com o museu
(Translated by Google) The birthplace of UFMG and all Higher Education in Minas Gerais, the Pharmacy course at UFOP has the best museum and the best guide available free of charge for visitors to enjoy. On a time-warp tour, you won't even notice the time passing during the guided tour of this incredible museum. Get ready to see how the profession and the Pharmacy course have evolved in our country, in addition to understanding why the role of the pharmacist has had a greater impact than that of doctors a few years ago. Enjoy your trip!
(Original)
Berço da UFMG e de toda a Educação Superior de Minas Gerais, o curso de Farmácia da UFOP tem o melhor Museu e o melhor guia disponíveis gratuitamente para deleite dos visitantes. Num passeio-túnel-do-tempo, você nem perceberá a hora passando na visita guiada por este incrível museu. Prepare-se para ver como a profissão e o curso de Farmácia evoluíram em nosso país, além de entender porquê o papel do farmacêutico já teve impacto maior do que de médicos alguns anos atrás. Boa viagem!
(Translated by Google) It was very worthwhile to visit this museum and hear the story told by the guide (doorman) named Luís about the records found there.
(Original)
Foi muito proveitoso visitar esse museu e ouvir a história narrada pelo guia(porteiro) de nome Luís sobre os registros que ali se encontram.

This is the best historical site in Ouro Preto! The painstaking renovation performed by the family who own it is truly extraordinary. Our guide, Matteus, a young architecture student at the university, lavished his attention on our small group, providing us with a fascinating, detailed description in Portuguese and English of the Palacio's history, its residents as far back as the early 18th century, and its renovation from a ruin, which took 8 years to complete. We were also fortunate to meet the family who have put their hearts and souls (and their own money) into bringing this important historical landmark back to life. The restored Palacio D'Ouro is a labor of love and worth every penny to see in all its magnificence. Not to be missed!

We really enjoyed this guided tour of the property. Lots of great information on the property, history and artifacts. The tour is in Portuguese so without a translator it might be harder to understand everything.
Excellent guided tour. Explains the history of gold mining in Ouro Preto, the family that owned the mine and the role of slavery. A visit to the house is followed by a walk through a small mine and a description of the separation of the gold from the mud. Nice views from the gardens. Tours in English available. Best to check tour times before going.
No good, complicated process. Found the receptionist disrespectful. Do not recommend going. Further, you make a comment as if you know who I am or when I came. You don't know, so don't assume, you make yourself look unintelligent (desiring to use a more harsh word). You don't know my experience, when I came, who I am, or what my experience was. By responding, you show the true nature of yourself as an arrogant, petulant child who tries to gaslight and invalidate someone else's experience. THIS IS MY REVIEW. I WONT BE SILENCED! AGAIN, I DO NOT RECOMMEND COMING HERE!
Great! English tours available BUT arrange a day beforehand to ensure. Wasn't available on the spot when I showed up (which I didn't expect). Good value for the money, yet the mining part is rather small/short and worth combining it with another mine in town.
This was a really amazing experience at the Palacio D'Ouro. My family and I were visiting from the United States and we had to come to this based on the reviews and I have to say it did not disappoint. Such a well-kept place and amazing history plus we had a celebrity walking us through the event which was fantastic.
I paid R$ 100 for a 2h long guided tour.
There are many antique furniture and a mine.
The guide answered every question I had and was very welcoming.
Really enjoyed it very interesting good guide

(Translated by Google) One of the most beautiful places I've ever visited, Padre Viegas, a cozy place with wonderful people
(Original)
Um dos lugares mais lindos que já visitei, Padre Viegas, um lugar aconchegante de pessoas maravilhosas
(Translated by Google) It urgently needs maintenance/renovation.
Weeds are growing on the walls of the building, causing cracks and leaks.
It is closed most of the time, which contributes to the proliferation of mold, and of course makes access difficult for the faithful and visitors.
There is a lack of attention from the government and IEPHA.
(Original)
Precisa urgente de cuidados/reforma.
O mato está crescendo pelas paredes da construção, provocando rachaduras e infiltrações.
Fica a maior parte do tempo fechada, o que contribui para a proliferação de mofo, além é claro dificulta o acesso de fiéis e visitantes.
Falta atenção do Poder Público e do IEPHA.
