Basílica San Antonio de Padua

Basílica San Antonio de Padua is a church in Villa Devoto featuring multiple domes and Romanesque architectural elements throughout its structure. Its interior displays an ornate high altar decorated with religious artworks and detailed craftsmanship visible in every corner.

Construction began in 1889 but faced repeated interruptions due to economic crises and deaths of key supporters. The building was finally consecrated in 1928.

The basilica serves as a focal point for religious celebrations and ceremonies in the neighborhood. Residents and visitors gather regularly to participate in worship and maintain their spiritual traditions.

The church is located at Avenida Lincoln 3751 and stands out clearly from the street. Visitors can join guided tours or come for personal prayer.

The main dome was rebuilt in 1993 following a fire that destroyed the original structure in 1991. This replacement represents one of the building's most significant modern changes.
