The Church of San José de Ribamar in Aquiraz is a typical example of religious architecture, distinguished by its formal simplicity, heavy appearance, and absence of ornamentation. The construction of the church began in the eighteenth century, and although it lost its distinguishing features during the nineteenth century, it still includes some points of interest such as the main entrance doors with bulging panels, the chimneys framing the nave roof, and the painted panels of the altar roof, which depict rings of The life of the saint.
