IGLESIA DE SANTA BÁRBARA
Santa Barbara is the most surprising church in Mompox, with its emblematic octagonal tower, in Moorish baroque style
Santa Barbara is the most surprising church of Mompox, with its emblematic octagonal tower, of Moorish baroque style. Its ochre color is very photogenic, even at night, with a beautiful illumination of the temple. Built in 1613, it is the only church in the country (and one of the few in the world) to have a balcony. The church is often closed, but it is sometimes possible to visit it and climb to the bell tower to enjoy a beautiful panoramic view. Inside, the altar dedicated to Saint Barbara and the wooden Mompox Cross, which is taken out during the processions.
