Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes, Catholic church in Libertador Municipality, Venezuela

The church displays a neoclassical facade with three entrances formed by lowered arches and a triangular pediment above the central section.

The current structure, inaugurated in 1857, replaced earlier buildings destroyed by earthquakes in 1641 and 1812 at different locations in the area.

The church maintains regular Mass schedules throughout the week, serving as a central point for religious ceremonies in the Altagracia Parish.

Visitors can reach the church using public transportation from Urdaneta Avenue or by taking Line 1 of the Metro to Capitolio station.

The bell towers feature semicircular arched openings and are crowned with half-orange domes equipped with lanterns at their peaks.
