House of Prayer of the Third Order of Carmel and Church of the Third Order of Carmel

The Church and Convent of Our Lady of Mount Carmel (Igreja e Convento de Nossa Senhora do Carmo) is an 18th-century Roman Catholic church in Cachoeira, Bahia, Brazil. It was constructed between 1688 and likely completed in 1773. The church is dedicated to Our Lady of the Rosary and is constructed in the Baroque style with a Rococo frontispiece. The church opens to Travessa Taváres, a broad avenue, with a view to the Paraguaçu River. The church is dedicated to Our Lady of Mount Carmel. The church and convent are connected to the House of Prayer of the Carmelite Third Order; the two form a single architectural complex. The church and convent, as well as the Carmelite Third Order church, was listed as a historic structure by National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage (IPHAN) in 1938. The convent was converted to a guest house in the 20th century and is known as the Pousada Convento do Carmo.
