## Visit Cathedral of Salvador

#### Admire the mannerist façade and sacred art that decorates this Jesuit-built church, which dominates the lively Terreiro de Jesus square.

The Cathedral of Salvador (Catedral Basilica de Salvador) is a magnificent and well-maintained example of Jesuit architecture. This striking landmark dates back to the mid-1600s and is the seat of Salvador’s archbishop. Members of the Jesuit Order built the Cathedral of Salvador on the site of a 16th-century church. Its exterior craftsmanship and interior artwork are thought to be just as impressive today as when originally designed.

The cathedral’s façade is of the mannerist architectural style, which was popular in Portugal at the time, and made from limestone. Look for the statues set in the niches located above the building’s three doors. They depict three revered Jesuit saints: St. Ignatius of Loyola, St. Francis of Xavier and St. Francis Borgia. Crowning the façade’s upper level is a gable flanked by bell towers.

Step inside to discover a traditional, rectangular-shaped church layout with one aisle and several chapels. Take time to appreciate the 13 altars, which range in style from Baroque to mannerist and Renaissance. The main altar proudly displays a series of 18 gilded pillars. Spot sculpted symbols of the Candomblé religion and a huge icon of Christ the Saviour.

Be sure to visit the sacristy to see its elegantly painted dome and carved archway. Here you can also see a collection of 16th-century furniture and pieces recovered from the previous church.

Find the cathedral on the northern side of Terriero of Jesus, an attractive square in the heart of Salvador’s Historic Centre. While here, marvel at the square’s colonial palaces, browse artisan stalls and watch capoeira dancers. Visit other churches such as the Church of São Pedro dos Clérigos and the Church of São Domingos Gusmão. A 5-minute walk away is the opulently decorated São Francisco Church and Convent of Salvador.

The Cathedral of Salvador is open daily and there is an admission fee. On Sunday mornings the Barroco na Bahia performs Baroque chamber music concerts. Come at Easter to be part of lively celebrations.
