Chapel Nuestra Señora de Lourdes

Chapel Nuestra Señora de Lourdes is a religious building with a square bell tower topped by an octagonal pyramidal dome. Pointed arches and large wooden doors on the northern facade define its appearance.

This religious building was founded in 1885 under President Joaquín Crespo and designed by architect Juan Hurtado Manrique in neo-Gothic style. It became a recognized National Historical Heritage site by 2006.

This religious structure stands within the Núcleo de Desarrollo Endógeno Eje Turístico El Calvario, designated as a National Historical Heritage site in 2006.

The building remains closed to the public and no longer hosts active religious services. Visitors can best appreciate the structure from the surrounding hillside area.

From its hilltop location, the structure features a viewing area at the rear that opens toward central Caracas. This elevated vantage point allows visitors to see across the city center.
