Inmaculada Concepción

Inmaculada Concepción is a church in Belgrano featuring a distinctive circular structure with a 20-meter-wide dome supported by interior columns. The entrance is framed by ten Corinthian columns and marble steps.

The church opened in 1878 under engineer Nicolas Canale's direction, who collaborated with his son Jose and architect Juan Antonio Buschiazzo. This collaboration shaped the building's Renaissance Revival design.

The building displays Italian design elements that echo the Roman Pantheon and shape the neighborhood's appearance. Visitors notice the unusual round form that sets this church apart from other structures in Buenos Aires.

The church is located in Belgrano and welcomes visitors during the week for regular services. It is easily accessible, and the marble entrance with broad steps allows for straightforward access.

The church breaks from traditional church designs by using a fully circular floor plan, which is why locals call it La Redonda. This unusual shape makes it a special example of architectural variety in the city.
