This thesis entitled Lugares humanos, lugares do sagrado. Ensaio de etnologia da religião. Relatos e análises da vida religiosa na Favela da Casa de Nassau e no Condomínio City América Pirituba-São Domingos, zona noroeste de São Paulo (Human places, sacred places. Essay on the ethnology of religion. Report and analysis of the religious life in the slam named Casa de Nassau and City América House Condominiun in Pirituba-São Domingos, nothwest zone of São Paulo City) , is an essay that researches and describes much of the religious life of these two communities. Its aim is to describe the way religious experiences take place in their existential reality and they way they make these religious experiences emerge as an existential reference. The research captures the religious experiences as social facts, allowing an assimilation of these human places as sacred places, considering that in everyday experiences through religious life, the sacred emerges as an existential tonus responsible for giving these citizens a direction to their lives. Through image collection, the description of the religious life in both fields of research built up a rich file of visual communication besides the recovery of memories and traditions, showing theoretic aspects on the religious life logged in social sciences so far. In this sense, the research depicts the way the sacred as subjective experience became an objectively social reality, a transforming force in everyday life. This way, understanding human beings as homo religious, the research describes not only a profound penetration in social life, but also that the religious experience is built among symbolic elements that go beyond the barriers that the social differences present
