San Sebastián, Catholic church in Lima District, Peru

The San Sebastian Church displays a pink and white facade at the intersection of Ica and Chancay streets in Lima's historic center.

Established in 1554 as Lima's third parish, the church gained recognition as the baptism site of Rose of Lima and Martin de Porres.

The main altarpiece from the 18th century represents the religious artistry and underwent restoration through Spanish collaboration efforts.

The church maintains regular Catholic services under the administration of the Archdiocese of Lima at the corner of Jiron Ica.

An antique lamp known as the crow's foot remains on the parish balcony, representing early street lighting methods in Lima.
