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.
