Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, Viña del Mar

Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, Viña del Mar, Roman Catholic church in central Viña del Mar, Chile.

The Iglesia de Nuestra Señora de los Dolores is a Neoromanesque church designed by Emilio Jecquier and inaugurated on 28 February 1912. It stands at the corner of Álvarez Street and Plaza Eduardo Grove, in the centre of Viña del Mar, on the site of an earlier church by Eusebio Chelli demolished after the 1906 earthquake.

An original chapel was built in 1871 by Dolores Pérez but was destroyed after the 1906 earthquake that devastated the region. The current structure was designed by architect Emilio Jecquier and represents the city's religious renewal following this natural disaster.

The church is also called the Parroquia de Viña del Mar, and from 1882 it served the faithful of Viña del Mar, Concón, El Salto and Peñablanca. Its patronal name, Nuestra Señora de los Dolores, recalls Dolores Pérez, who had a small chapel built here in 1871. Inside, look for the baptismal font where Alberto Hurtado was baptised on 23 January 1901.

The church is easily reached from the central plaza, with access available to visitors during operating hours. Nearby streets provide parking options and public transportation stops are located in the vicinity.

The baptismal font preserved inside is the one where Alberto Hurtado was baptized on 23 January 1901; he was born in Viña del Mar and canonized in 2005. Look for the font among the church's furnishings, a link between the 1912 building and its predecessor.
