The Church of the Third Order of Mount Carmel sits at the top of Ladeira do Carmo, a street leading north from the main squares of the Pelourinho.
It is in close proximity to the Church of the Blessed Sacrament at Rua do Passo.
The structure, of brick and stone masonry, is slightly set back from street level and is approached via a large staircase in stone.
The structure is built around two courtyards.
Its plan is vast in scale and consists of the church and sacristy, an ossuary, a consistory room (casa da mesa), and a house of saints (casa dos santos).
The galleries are glazed.
