Church of San Nicolau
The church, an important icon in the “baixa”
center of the city, The church has two valuable areas that are
being considered for conservation work. The first corresponds
to the Baptistery that has a stucco ceiling covered with tempera
paintings. It also holds excellent gilded wooden sculptures and
a unique font. The second which has been carried out is the Sacristy
of the Brotherhood (showed in the pictures) that holds unique
pieces such as the 18th century golden reliquaries and sculptures,
apart from the decorated ceiling.
This project was undertaken at the request of one of the most
important sponsors of WMFP who will completely fund it.
