Iglesia de San Saturnino, Santiago de Chile, Gothic Revival church in Yungay district, Santiago, Chile.

The San Saturnino Church features three entrances, a bell tower, and stained glass windows throughout its rectangular floor plan with central and side naves.

Construction of the church began in 1844 under priest Luis Benavente and was completed by architect Teodoro Burchard in 1887 on former prison grounds.

The wooden statue of Saint Saturninus, brought from Quito in the 17th century, represents protection against earthquakes for Santiago's residents.

The church stands at Santo Domingo 2772 in Santiago, next to Plaza Yungay, and reopened in 2019 after extensive restoration work.

The church houses an organ manufactured by Oreste Carlini in the 1920s and contains metal reinforcements added after the 1985 earthquake.
