Church of La Soledad, Mexico City, Neoclassical parish church in La Merced district, Mexico City, Mexico.

The Church of La Soledad presents three naves supported by sculpted columns, with barrel vaults allowing natural light through multiple windows.

The church structure, completed in 1787 and consecrated in 1792, replaced an earlier Augustinian doctrina de indios that was secularized in 1750.

The church maintains its role as a central religious institution in La Merced district, hosting regular masses and community gatherings throughout the year.

Located near public transportation routes, the church opens daily for visitors who can observe its gray sandstone facade and 19th-century furnishings.

The church received national monument status in 1931 and underwent comprehensive restoration work in 1982 following various incidents of damage.
