UNESCO World Heritage Site in Bahia, Brazil
Über Pelourinho
The Historic Center (US) or Centre (UK) of Salvador de Bahia in Brazil, also known as the Pelourinho (Portuguese for "Pillory") or Pelô, is a historic neighborhood in western Salvador, Bahia. It was the city's center during the Portuguese colonial period and was named for the whipping post in its central plaza where enslaved people from Africa were publicly beaten as punishment for alleged infractions. The Historic Center is extremely rich in historical monuments dating from the 17th through the 19th centuries. Designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Largo do Pelourinho retains a vibrant repertoire of colonial Portuguese architecture, exemplified by the Mannerist decoration of the Cathedral of Salvador, the Baroque intricacy of the Church and Convent of São Francisco and the Church of the Third Order of Our Lady of the Rosary of the Black People.
