For Catholics, this is a very special place. Built during the governmemnt of Brasilia's founder J. Kubitschek, this small chapel is very dear to the city's inhabitants. Worth seeing it!

I was taken here by my diplomat friends who used to worship here when they lived in the diplomatic apartments nearby. Yet another architectural gem, it was built for Sara, wife of the President when Brasilia was founded. The church can only hold about twenty people but can be extended by chairs outside. The blue exterior tiles are very attractive with doves on them and the interior walls have been re-decorated recently. I liked the intimacy of the place.

For me, it wasn't a "MUST DO" in Brasilia, but I stumbled upon while walking the Ala Sul and it was worth the visit. It's very original.

Not an arresting view .. it is small but very near the superquadras which were the first residential structures built as designed by Lucio Costa.. The church is interesting architecturally and the also the tiles by Athos Bulcao can be seen here...

It's designed to look like a nun's wimple. As a part of a day tour, it will put it all into context, how the residential "wings" of the city were designed with the community churches, schools, etc. The whole city is an architectural treasure,

Just a simple, small church with some blue tiles on its side. Nothing that special. Nice place to look around and take a few minutes to relax

Really cute and simple church built for Sara Kubitscheck, wife of former President Juscelino K.Nice tile work.

sua arquitetura é impar, parece habito de freira... com azulejos de Athos Bulcão... arte no meio da cidade, um colirio para os olhos

Outra obra de Oscar Niemeyer, essa pequena igreja foi erguida como pagamento de promessa feita por Sarah Kubitschek em agradecimento a Nossa Senhora de Fátima pela cura de sua filha que havia sido acometida por uma grave doença.Tem um painel muito bonito de azulejos. Vale a pena a visita

Construída devido a promessa de D. Sarah Kubitschek a Igrejinha possui os imperdíveis azulejos de Athos Bulcão, e a obra de arte de Galeno, que apesar de toda a controvérsia deixou ainda mais linda a Igrejinha. Como é bem pequena, precisa chegar cedo para apreciar uma missa aos domingos!!!

es una iglesia muy pequeña, con pinturas murales curiosas (se ven carreteles de hilo en la túnica de la virgen y en otros lados, que no supe a qué se debían). Por fuera las paredes están cubiertas con azulejos azules y blancos de Athos Bulcao. Hermosos los diseños de Bulcao, muy personales.

A igrejinha é um cartão postal emblemático em Brasilia. As missas de domingo são muito concorridas, e o lindo painel pintado pelo pintor Galeno renovou a Igreja, que é adornada pelos azulejos de Athos Bulcão

Construída em 1957 após promessa de Sarah Kubitschek para curar a sua filha, foi a primeira escultura de alvenaria da futura capital. Possui azulejos de Athos Bulcão, um dos maiores mestres na arte de fazer painéis que embelezam vários pontos da cidade

Para as pessoas que se interessam por arquitetura, caminhar aos redores da igrejinha e da 308 é um passeio muito interessante. Recomendo.
