The church is dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua and is constructed in the Baroque style with a Rococo frontispiece. The convent and church fell into ruin by the end of the 19th century; Archbishop Jerônimo Thomé da Silva allowed a commission to demolish and sell the contents of the 1915; it lacked the funds to demolish the church, but sold its contents to José Mariano Filho in 1916. The monumental façade of the church served as a model for Baroque churches across the Northeast Region of Brazil; it and its intricate garden remain on the site. The church and convent were listed as a historic structure by National Institute of Historic and Artistic Heritage in 1941.
