Iglesia María Inmaculada

Iglesia María Inmaculada, Catholic church in Huancayo District, Peru.

Iglesia María Inmaculada stands at the corner of Jirón Ica's seventh block and Jirón Amazonas's eighth block in central Huancayo. Its Renaissance-style stone facade has three arched portals, the central Puerta del Perdón, a rose window and the Franciscan shield above, and Tuscan pilasters below a curved tympanum. Inside, a Latin-cross plan holds three naves, a 40-metre dome over the crossing and towers of 45 metres.

Construction started in 1944 under Father Jesús María Gaintza, supported by community donations and land contributions from local benefactors. The project reflected the church's growing role in the city during the mid-20th century.

The church serves as a central gathering place for the community during religious celebrations and daily worship. Inside, visitors find neoclassical altars dedicated to the Immaculate Conception alongside statues honoring local saints.

The church is located at the intersection of Jirón Ica and Jirón Amazonas streets in the city center. It is easily accessible on foot and close to other main attractions in the area.

Above each side altar stands a small stained-glass window showing the same saint as the altar below it, so the windows and retables are paired one by one. The left side door stays closed except on Holy Thursday, when it is opened for the entry of the faithful.
