    st. ildefonso church

    By fatimaS  |  Posted November 1, 2009  |  porto, Portugal
     

    #1 is a vitral inside the church

     

    #2 view of the church

     

    The church was constructed from 1709 on since the first church was in ruins. It was concluded in 18 July 1739.

     

    The nave is of polygonal type in proto-baroque style.

     

    Above the entablature there is a niche with the patron saint.

     

    It has steeple towers with dentils on the cornices, topped on each side by fantasy spheres and frontons.

     

    The walls are decorated with tiles by Jorge Colaço (1932), depicting scenes from the life of St. Ildefonso and allegories from the Eucharist.
