Basílica Menor Nuestra Señora del Carmen, Frontino, Gothic Revival minor basilica in Frontino, Colombia.
The Basilica features intricate stone details, pointed arches, and dual towers that form a symmetrical facade characteristic of Gothic Revival architecture.
Construction of the Basilica started in 1922 under architects Andrés Lorenzo Huarte and Daniel Puelles, replacing a small straw chapel from 1860.
The Basilica received its minor basilica status from Pope Benedict XVI in 2010, elevating its importance in the Catholic Archdiocese of Santa Fe de Antioquia.
The church opens daily from 06:00 to 19:30, offering multiple Mass services throughout the day, with additional celebrations during weekends.
The construction was executed by Manuel Callejas Muñoz, a self-taught engineer from Frontino who implemented the complex Gothic Revival design.
