Overview

Carmo Church located near the Clerigos Tower dates back to the 18th century in baroque-rococo style. Carmo Church is twinned with the Carmelite Church on the west side. These churches are separated by a very narrow house built to make all contact impossible between nuns and monks. In the extension of the hospital’s elevation, there is panel of blue and white tiles designed by Silvestro Silvestri. These 2 buildings was classified together as National Monument in 2013.
