La Santísima Trinidad del Paraná, Jesuit mission ruins in Trinidad, Paraguay.
The stone remains of La Santísima Trinidad del Paraná extend across 12 hectares, featuring a central plaza, church, workshops, and living quarters.
Constructed in 1706 as a Jesuit reduction, the site operated until 1768 when Spanish authorities expelled the Jesuit order from their colonies.
The architectural design merges European baroque elements with indigenous Guarani craftsmanship through intricate stone carvings and structural techniques.
Visitors can access the archaeological complex daily through the PY06 route, with guided tours explaining the historical significance of each structure.
The evening light and sound shows illuminate the ruins while narrating the daily activities of the former inhabitants through multimedia presentations.
