Church of Santo Cristo de la Salud, Málaga, Baroque Catholic church in central Málaga, Spain.

The Church of Santo Cristo de la Salud presents an octagonal structure with a cupola and intricate stuccoes throughout its interior architectural elements.

The building served as part of the Jesuit college of San Sebastian, constructed after Bishop Salcedo Blanco donated the land in 1572.

The church received its name following numerous reported healings during the epidemic of 1649, becoming a center for local religious practices.

The church maintains regular visiting hours and holds services, with access from the narrow street in the historical district of Málaga.

The altar contains sculptures from the 17th-century Seville School, while architect Jose Martin de Aldehuela added a dedicated chapel to Saint Peter in 1787.
