Strikingly stark and simple in design, this 17th-century church is one of the oldest in Uruguay.
Reviewed By jonahNJ - Pennington, United States
During a walking tour of Colonia del Sacramento, my wife and I visited this charming church in the heart of this historic city. During the tour, I learned that Iglesia Matriz is Uruguay’s oldest church which dates back to 1680. The church is relatively small, though the bright white interior and volume ceiling make it appear to be larger than it is. The church is very well maintained, though a couple of aged pillars in the rear of the church are reminders of the age of the church. The design of the church clearly shows the influence of the Portuguese who had colonized Uruguay. Admission to the church is free and well worth a brief visit.
