Iglesia de Santa Ana, Catholic church in Cusco District, Peru

The church features adobe walls and buttresses built upon Inca stone foundations, with a separate tower serving as a watchtower over Cusco.

The parish of Santa Ana was established on April 28, 1559, by corregidor Juan Polo de Ondegardo in the Q'armenqa neighborhood of Cusco.

The church previously housed the Corpus Series, twelve large canvases depicting Corpus Christi celebrations, now exhibited at the Religious Art Museum of Cusco.

The church stands in Santa Ana Square, at coordinates 13°30'53.028"S and 71°59'8.822"W, within the monumental zone of Cusco declared in 1972.

The building incorporates stones from Sacsayhuaman in its foundation, connecting Christian architecture with Inca engineering methods.
