context_page_description: The Parish Church of Saint Bartholomew is a 17th-century Roman Catholic church located in Maragogipe, Bahia, Brazil. The church is dedicated to Bartholomew the Apostle and belongs to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of São Salvador da Bahia.
  The church is one of the most important in Bahia; the 17th-century structure "served as a model for the churches with side aisles and two-tower façades in the following century." Its construction of lateral corridors and a monumental façade, along with two towers, spread across the region in the 18th century. It was a design especially favored by parish churches and headquarters of the irmandades, or Catholic brotherhoods. The church was listed as a historic structure by the National Historic and Artistic Heritage Institute in 1941.
