Parroquia de San Sebastián, Catholic parish in Antigua Guatemala, Guatemala.

The San Sebastian Parish features a brick-constructed facade and stands at the foot of Cerro del Manchén mountain in Antigua Guatemala.

Founded as a hermitage in 1565, the church moved to its current location in 1582 under the supervision of Juan de Cuéllar.

The parish serves as one of three main religious centers that governed the former Santiago de los Caballeros de Guatemala city.

Religious services take place regularly in this parish, which operates under the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Santiago de Guatemala.

The baptism of renowned poet Rafael Landívar took place within the walls of this religious building.
