Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús, Catholic parish church in Santiago Centro, Chile
The Iglesia del Sagrado Corazón de Jesús stands with its neoclassical facade, featuring a portico supported by Doric columns and a bell tower on Avenida O'Higgins.
Built around 1870, the church started as a novitiate school next to the Capilla de la Pía Sociedad Zambrano before becoming a parish in 1912.
The church serves the Catholic community under the Legionaries of Christ, forming part of the Decanato Blanco Encalada within the Archdiocese of Santiago de Chile.
Located at Avenida Libertador General Bernardo O'Higgins 3137, the church positions itself near Santiago Central Station, making it accessible for travelers and locals.
The church's construction transformed the perception of its surrounding neighborhood, which previously held a concerning reputation in the late 19th century.
