Description:
Constructed in the late 19th-century for Portuguese Catholics in the area, this octagonal church brings a bit of the Old Country to the islands. Modeled after a Portuguese crown, the building features an elaborate gilt altar and fourteen beautifully decorated stations of the cross. The tiered exterior, crowned by a cross, is unmistakable. When the church was threatened by termites several years back, the congregation rallied to restore it and sold Portuguese sweet bread to raise funds for the work.
