São Jorge Mother Church

The seventeenth-century São Jorge church is Madeira’s largest Baroque church. The church is a purposeful heritage visit in São Jorge, not simply a village landmark.

São Jorge Mother Church

Why go

Its scale makes it a strong architectural stop in Santana municipality. Take time with the interior as well as the façade to appreciate the Baroque setting, and distinguish it from the small churches and chapels scattered through the north-coast villages.
