Chapel of Our Lady of Chiquinquirá, Colonial religious monument in La Ceja del Tambo, Colombia.
The rectangular chapel features a single nave structure with white walls and contains a collection of religious paintings from multiple centuries.
Construction of the chapel commenced in 1820 on land given by María Josefa Marulanda, replacing an earlier structure from El Hato demolished in 1792.
The temple houses the remains of Colombian figures including poet Gregorio Gutiérrez González and former President Juan de Dios Aranzazu.
Visitors can explore the religious art museum inside the chapel, which includes works by Colombian artist Gregorio Vasquez de Arce y Ceballos.
The chapel received official designation as a Temple Museum of Religious Art in 1968 due to its substantial collection of historical artworks.
