Built in 1534, that is to say before the foundation of the city. There are many baroque altarpieces, of course, gilded with gold leaf, and an altar from which emerges the tabernacle in embossed silver. Its façade is also very elaborate in the Churrigueresque Limenian baroque style and its door made of pinkish-grey granite imported from Panama at the time is quite unique. Without a doubt, it stands out in the most commercial pedestrian street of the historic centre.

L'église est vraiment proche de la plaza de armas, et sa façade - dans la rue piétonne - est très jolie. L'entrée est gratuite. Si vous êtes à Lima au moment de Noël, il y a toujours dans cette église une très grande crèche, vraiment jolie.

Située dans la rue piétonne, vous ne la manquerez pas, et de plus c'est gratuit (rare à Lima) très belle façade avec une couleur un peu verte, son intérieur est richement décoré avec un bel autel et un superbe retable, des petites chapelles sur les extrémités, il faut assister à une messe, belle ambiance.

With its beautiful façade and the richness of its decorations this church is worth a visit during a walk in the city centre.
