The Igreja de São Francisco was built in the late 16th century. However, just a few decades later, the church was destroyed again in a Dutch attack. The church as it can be visited today was built in the early 18th century. The magnificent interior decoration was elaborately designed by various artists of the time and took 150 years to complete. It is estimated that around 1,000 kg of real gold were used in the interior design of the São Francisco Church. Even today the church is an important landmark in Salvador and can take the breath of many tourists.
