Iglesia de Santo Toribio, Colonial church in San Diego district, Cartagena de Indias, Colombia.
The Santo Toribio Church stands at the corner of Plaza Fernandez de Madrid, featuring white walls and a traditional Spanish colonial architecture design.
Construction of the church started in 1666 under Bishop Antonio Sanz Lozano, making it the last religious building erected during the colonial period in Cartagena.
The main altar contains the only baroque religious piece remaining in Cartagena, displaying intricate woodwork and architectural elements from the colonial period.
The church opens daily for visitors and worshippers at Calle 38 #6-107, near the intersection of Calle Curato and Calle del Sargento Mayor.
A cannonball from Admiral Vernon's 1741 attack remains preserved within the church walls, striking during a mass celebration without causing injuries.
