Basilica De Santisimo Sacramento, Colonia del Sacramento

4.0

#4 of 9 in Historic Sites in Colonia del Sacramento

One of the highlights of the World Heritage-listed city center, Basilica De Santisimo Sacramento dates back to the 17th century, when the site was occupied by a more humble building made of mud. The pair of main towers possesses colonial-era rusticity, with the whitewashed walls adding much to this effect. The history of the church is detailed in the main building, while the neatly restored interior creates an atmosphere of contemplation and spirituality, harking back to the town's colonial past.

Este recinto es uno muy antiguo, conservando todas las características de aquella época, lugar que no puedes dejar de ver por el contenido histórico y cultural que te hará viajar un poco en el tiempo ... more »

This enclosure is one very old, while retaining all the characteristics of that time, place that you can not see the historical and cultural content that will make you travel a little in time to an era where it seems that life was a little more simple, away from today's Modernisms.

Despite the fact that Colonia is a beautiful city and a cultural patrimony, this church requires maintenance.
