Every year, the Portuguese town of Braga attracts many visitors from all over the world due to its beautiful architecture, nature and a large number of churches. Among the religious buildings of the city, the main Cathedral stands out, and next to it there is a small church of the 16th century, belonging to the Brotherhood of Mercy. This small church, not very remarkable from the outside, impresses with its lush decor inside. The main facade, side portal and the general structure of the temple are made in the Flemish Renaissance style.
