Parroquia Nuestra Señora de la Rábida, Modern Catholic church in Congreso district, Buenos Aires, Argentina
The church building features red brick walls and stands at the corner of Avenida Belgrano and Luis Sáenz Peña, facing the Federal Police Department.
The parish was established in 1988 to commemorate the 500th anniversary of American evangelization, named after the monastery where Columbus prayed before his journey.
The interior arrangement includes wooden and straw chairs in a semi-circle around the altar, creating a communal space for worship gatherings.
The church opens daily from 11:30 AM to 8:00 PM, except Wednesdays, with masses at noon and 7:00 PM on weekdays, and extended hours on weekends.
The building transformed from a Catholic school managed by Irish brothers for 25 years into a spiritual center with a cinerarium in its cypress-lined courtyard.
