Iglesia de San Agustín, Neoclassical church building in Santiago commune, Chile
The Iglesia de San Agustín features two towers and a main facade adorned with six Doric columns and a balustrade-topped entablature in Santiago.
Established in 1595 and consecrated in 1625, this church stands as the second oldest religious structure in Chile, following Saint Francis of Assisi's church.
The Cristo de Mayo wooden carving inside the church has maintained its crown of thorns around its neck since the 1647 earthquake.
Located at the intersection of Agustinas and Estado streets, the church provides wheelchair access for visitors exploring the historical center.
The sub-altar houses a bone relic of Saint Rita of Cascia, making it a significant destination for religious devotees in Santiago.
