    The Church of the Third Order (or Church of the Third Order of Saint Francis) is an important Baroque monument located in the historic center of Braga, Portugal. Built from 1690 onwards with alms from the faithful, it reflects the religious fervor of the Third Order of Saint Francis.

      Artistic and Architectural Highlights
      Facade: Features a central niche with an image of Our Lady of the Conception.
      Interior: Has a single nave with a coffered stone vaulted ceiling.
      Tiles: The chancel is covered with magnificent blue and white historical tile panels, dated 1734 and attributed to Nicolau de Freitas, which narrate scenes from the life of Saint Francis.
      Gilded Woodcarving: The side altars and the main altarpiece display the refinement of the Baroque gilded woodcarving characteristic of the Braga region.

        The church is part of a group of temples in Braga that represent the peak of religious construction in the 18th century, and is a must-see for anyone visiting the "City of Archbishops".
