Saint Rose of Viterbo Church and Convent, Baroque temple in Santiago de Querétaro, Mexico.
The temple features five baroque altarpieces with vegetal forms, crowns, and angels, all painted in the eighteenth century by Ignacio Mariano de las Casas.
The construction of the temple began in the late seventeenth century and was completed in 1752 under the direction of architects Francisco Martínez and Ignacio Mariano de las Casas.
Inside the former convent area, visitors can explore life-sized sculptures of the Last Supper and numerous portraits of religious figures from colonial Mexico.
The temple museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Friday between 11:00 and 17:00, with an entrance fee of 30 Mexican pesos.
The temple clock tower combines baroque and Arabic architectural influences, making it a notable example of colonial Mexican religious architecture.
