This is one of the coolest and most beautiful churches I’ve ever seen designed and it was done for Brazil’s catholic population. Although Oscar was an atheist  himself but it is said that he had a deep respect for individual beliefs and a love for his culture, which is evident in many of his designs, and so was more than happy to design a place of worship for the people. The modernism in his design is such a fresh take on Catholic Church design and like a lot of his other designs it sports a moat around the building.

The interior of the church is rather large and the ceiling funnels up toward the sky which draws the eye upward toward the beautifully designed glass work and hanging statues. Oscar really captured the feel and purpose of a church in his own free-flowing style.
