This work is integrated to the research line History Education and Historic Knowledge, of the Master s Degree Course of History Graduate Program in Federal University of Paraíba, whose area of concentration is History and Historical Culture. The dissertation has as main objective to analyze the Carmelite baroque historical culture, through the meaning of the allegories of Our Lady of Carmel Church, builded in the colonial City of Paraíba. The methodology is assented in the images analysis proposed by Erwin Panofsky in his book Meaning in the visual arts. An iconological interpretation of the images in Portuguese tiles and walls and roof paintings is done, in order to understand which behavior model was expected to be followed by the Christians in the 18th-century City of Paraíba. In such a way, the allegories are understood as doctrinal tools made to teach the Christian the Carmelite historical culture, in an attempt to conduct the prayer to salvation. The research integrates the local historical context during the church construction, in the second half of 18th century, the birth and spread of Baroque art in the Europe in the ends of 16th century and the History of the Carmelite Order.
