In the town of Viseu, the Church of Nossa Senhora do Carmo is an unmissable tourist attraction. This baroque style church has an interesting history, as it originated from a strong disagreement between the Franciscans and the Capuchins. It dates back to the late 18th century and has undergone several renovations over the years, including the addition of a sacristy and session room in the 19th century. Without wasting time, you can visit this beautiful church in the city center. Its interior is enchanting and has a single nave, adorned with several gilded retables. Its presbytery has an octagonal shape and is covered with a hemispherical brick dome, beautifully decorated with frescoes. Inside you can appreciate the Joanina golden woodcarving presented in the chapels, pulpits, retables and even windows. In addition,
