St. Anthony's Church Postcard(PH Wish from Isabel Aleman)

The finest of Tiradentes religious buildings is the principal church, Santo Antonio (1710), which has gilded altars and a brightly painted organ made in Portugal in 1788. The façade was one of Aleijadinho's last works. The most striking feature of the interior is the choir, with festoons on the ceiling and carved pilasters.
