Church containing treasures of colonial art, with a gold inlaid monstrance and a baroque pulpit carved in wood

Built on the site of a 16th century church destroyed by the earthquake of 1736, it is undoubtedly the most beautiful church in Popayan. Behind its beautiful pale yellow baroque facade (unlike most religious buildings painted white), it contains treasures of colonial religious art, including a gold monstrance encrusted with emeralds, a baroque pulpit carved in wood and finely crafted sculptures. The imposing bell made of bronze, copper and gold is also a true marvel of its kind.

Un incontournable de Popayán
Une église au style atypique. Vraiment magnifique. Il faut aller la voir si vous passez par Popayán.

une église de plus!
Je sais toujours des églises mais il faut comparer et voir les détails de l'architecture, celle ci offre un style baroque colonial et ses couleurs sont bien agréables à la vue, son intérieur est richement décoré et orné. La façade a du jaune alors que la plupart des autres édifices religieux à Popayan sont blancs

Une des églises les plus recommandables de Popayan. Attention aux horaires, c'est assez limité pour les visites.
