Igreja Matriz de Santo Ildefonso

A igreja foi reconstruída a partir de 1730, por se encontrar em ruínas a primeira igreja, e ficou concluída em 1739, sendo dedicada a Santo Ildefonso de Toledo.

A fachada é composta por duas torres sineiras com dentilhões nas cornijas, rematadas em cada face por esferas e frontões de fantasia. Por cima do entablamento ergue-se o nicho do padroeiro. Guarnecem as paredes azulejos de Jorge Colaço (1932), cerca de onze mil peças dão vida à iconografia referente a Santo Ildefonso, a alegorias eucarísticas e a episódios do Novo Testamento.

A nave é de tipo poligonal em estilo proto-barroco, com tecto em madeira e estuques ornamentais repetidos nas paredes. Os altares laterais são obras neo-clássicas e os colaterais são de talha rococó. O retábulo em talha barroca é rococó da segunda metade do século XVIII.

Hole in the Middle • Barringer Meteorite Crater, AZ

Meteor Crater, also known as Barringer Meteorite Crater, is over 50,000 years old and is one of the only meteorite landings left on Earth to still be in tact without significant erosion. The impact site is massive in person, and many pieces of the meteorite is even still present on the land.
