Olinda – PE – Se Church and Seminary

We really liked this description from online recifeguide, so we repeat it here: “Official name: Church of Saint Savior of the World.  Built in 1535. It was turned into a Protestant temple during the Dutch period.  Located in the Alto da Sé, the highest place in Olinda. It was from where today is the backyard of this church that Duarte Coelho, enchanted with the beautiness of his viewing, would have said the phrase which gave name to the city: “Oh, linda situação para construir uma vila”.  Since 1676, this has been the cathedral of Olinda and Recife (hence the name, Sé, in Portuguese).”  We said we tell the stories.  Unused card with a clear sticky strip (like a Post-It Note) along the bottom.  Grade: 3
