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 Lord Jesus of Matozinhos Church

Serro/MG

Igreja do Bom Jesus de Matozinhos (Our Lord Jesus of Matozinhos Church) is located on a hill, in Matozinhos Plaza, at the point where General Pedra and Matozinhos roads cross, in central Serro. Of unknown authorship, it was built in the late 18th century. The building has a simple floor plan, with a nave, a chancel and side annexes corresponding to the sacristy. The wood and mud structure has corner and void garnitures made of wood, and a gable roof with eaves in corbels. The Church features square towers, a fronton in straight lines with a spyglass, and four windows, two of which are placed in the towers.
