Message from Olga Kuzmenko

The Church of Misericórdia in Angra do Heroísmo is a significant 18th-century building with a rich history. Originally built on the site of a 15th-century church, it boasts a striking façade and impressive interior features like altars, carved woodwork, and historical azulejo-tile panels. Visitors can admire statues, canvases, and learn about its connection to the city's first hospital. It's definitely worth a visit if you're into architecture and history!
