The whole town has a colonial German architecture, in fact the German families are still the ones who maintain the economy and the architecture, even repairs were being made and new buildings were being built. As you can see in the pictures, the church is not left behind in terms of colonial design, you can see it in the windows, the roof and even in the colors chosen for the facade. Well, let's go inside the Chapel, although there will still be a lot of people in the pictures...

Imagine the colossal size of this enclosure knowing that the capacity of the Colosseum was more than 60,000 spectators, being the scene of gladiator fights, public executions, theatrical plays, animal hunts, among other activities organized by the entourage of the emperor of the time. Later in history, after the fall of the Roman Empire, it was used as a fortification, stone quarry, among others. Today, in addition to having tourist purposes, the colosseum is the site of religious activities by the Catholic Church.

The doors, of two wood and glass leaves, maintain that colonial style and at the same time modern, thanks to the type of material used, and the lamps are undoubtedly the icing on the cake. Around the walls, we find lamps that give elegance, they look like antique lamps, fixed on an iron base. They are very nice and different. In the hallway, we find the same style of lamps, but these hang from the ceiling and are larger. You know, I always pay attention to the lighting fixtures because I consider them an important element in the decoration.
