Church of St. John of God, Baroque church in La Paz, Bolivia

The Church of St. John of God is an 18th-century Baroque church on Calle Loayza, near its junction with Avenida Camacho in central La Paz. Inside are 18th-century paintings of the Collao school, also called the Escuela de La Paz, and an altar with an image of the Virgin of the Remedies that came from the Tambo de las Harinas.

The present church was built in the 18th century in Baroque style on the site of an older temple demolished in 1764; that year a cabildo led by Martín Solera reported on the old building's cracks. The church was a donation of José Marín and was raised to venerate the Eucharist exposed in a gold and diamond custodia. In 2017 the faithful funded a restoration coordinated by the Bloque Inti and the municipal government.

Its 18th-century paintings belong to the Collao school, also called the Escuela de La Paz. In 2017 the Bloque Inti, part of a Gran Poder procession fraternity, worked with the municipal government on its restoration, with the faithful paying for materials.

The church sits in central La Paz within easy walking distance of other historic sites and shops along the street. Visitors can enter on foot to view the interior, though it is an active place of worship so visitors should be mindful of services taking place.

This building holds national monument status specifically for how well its Baroque details have been conserved through the centuries. The designation recognizes it as one of Bolivia's key examples of this architectural style and its methods of preservation.
