Digital Atlas of Minas Gerais' Heritage listed by the Institute of Cultural and Artistic National Heritage

Project aim

The elaboration of an updated Digital Atlas of the historical and cultural heritage of Minas Gerais allows diverse community sectors to know the State’s cultural heritage through a visual and interactive reading of the listed items, presented in maps, photographs, drawings and specific documents. This makes possible a constant evaluation of the physical conditions of that patrimony with the purpose of protecting it.

Besides, one of the features of the Digital Atlas is its comprehensiveness, since it gathers knowledge from various fields such as Geography, History, Archeology, Sociology, Politics, Architecture and Arts, rendering its content richer in variety.

Our Lady of Conception Mother Church

Serro/MG

Igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora da Conceição (Our Lady of Conception Mother Church) is located in Getúlio Vargas Square, in the city of Serro. Of unknown authorship, it started to be built from the 18th century, after 1776, until the early 19th century, being the third church constructed in that settlement. Although its works began in the last quarter of the 18th century, the temple has the traditional floor plan of mother churches built in the first half of the 18th century, featuring only two singularities: the towers detached from the main body and curved walls in the side annexes along the nave.
