Parish Church of Our Lady of Pilar
The Parish Church of Our Lady of Pilar (Portuguese: Igreja Matriz de Nossa Senhora do Pilar) is an 18th-century Roman Catholic church located in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil. It includes a cemetery, constructed in the Neoclassical parallel to the nave of the church. The interior of the church has an extensive set of azulejo tiles in the rococo style. The historian Carlos Ott dated them to the late 18th century, and stated that they appear to be the work of the Juncal workshop in Portugal. The stonework of the church is in lioz stone, imported from Lisbon at great expense. The art historian Germain Bazin describes the church as a "refinement of forms", due to its long, narrow nave and lack of corridors in the nave.
