Beautiful Church : Beautiful church inside out but you’re not allowed to take photos. They sell postcards of the church instead. The ticket is 7 euros and this includes the entry to see the catacomb and the church itself. The catacomb is a 3 story building with the basement is the most impressive.

Special Place : This is a really special place. There are more than 3000 pieces in display here, all of them with a story or a piece of history behind. It is definitely one of a kind, not to be missed. The cafe is also great, as the waiter for the plates that are favorite to locals and you won't miss

Beautiful Place : A must visit. Beautiful religious copy. It should not be excluded from the itinerary of visits to the best in Recife. The nickname sums it up well: Sistine Chapel of the Northeast. But the panels need restoration and conservation work.

Very Interesting : This place is incredibly beautiful and well kept. The weapon museum is rich in articles being displayed and the exhibitions are also pretty rich, talking about the colonial and Northeast. Amazing place to go to see the museum or even only for a walk

THE BEST REVIEW

A Must Visit : It is a unique and unique experience. Place rich in history of an important period of the history of Pernambuco. And the feeling upon entering the replica of the original synagogue was indescribable! They still have a small shop where you can find Jewish artifacts from Jerusalem.

Old Church : Very interesting old church and the museum had a lot of interesting things. Just kind of found it when we were walking by and went in. Worth the admission fee. The church is very beautiful, interesting and connected with the museum. Highly Recommended!
