The Church of Saint Michael (Portuguese: Igreja de São Miguel), formerly known as the Capela do Senhor Bom Jesus da Via Sacra e São Miguel, is an 18th-century Roman Catholic church and former convent in Salvador, Bahia, Brazil.
The church is dedicated, as evidenced by its original name, to Our Lord Jesus Crucified of the Via Sacra and Saint Michael the Archange.
It sits in close alignment to Rua Frei Vicente, a cobblestone street that connects the Pelourinho to Baixa dos Sapateiros.
His ornate tombstone in the church has the inscription Francisco, great sinner and unworthy founder of this chapel, asks for mercy from brother of the Third Order.
An elaborate portal at center of the façade is in carved stone, with a baroque-style triangular pediment with volutes.
[1][2][4][5] The interior of the church has a rectangular nave with a choir and chancel, side aisles and tribunes, a sacristy, and smaller miscellaneous rooms.
[2][4] The lioz tombstone of Francisco Gomes do Rego sits in front of the altar at the center of the floor of the chancel.
