Iglesia de Santa Rosa de Lima, Freirina, Neoclassical church in Freirina, Chile

The Santa Rosa de Lima Church features a symmetrical design with three naves, six arches, and seven Doric capital columns inside its basilica structure.

Construction of the church began on May 20, 1869, combining local residents' contributions and state funds under the direction of architect Santiago Meneses.

The church functions as a central religious institution where the residents of Freirina gather for Catholic ceremonies and community celebrations throughout the year.

The building stands near the Plaza de Armas of Freirina, with its main facade displaying three large porticos and a bell tower.

The church structure rests on a 1.2-meter foundation to compensate for uneven terrain and employs a double partition system typical of 19th-century regional architecture.
