Church of Jesus, Maria and Joseph in Lima

Church of Jesus, Maria and Joseph

Address
Corner of Jr. Moquegua and Jr. Camana
District
  • City Center
City (Peru)
Lima

The origins of the Church of Jesus, Maria and Joseph date back to 1678, but it was almost completely destroyed by the severe earthquakes in 1687 and 1746. Today you will find a simple church with the distinctive charm of a typical small town chapel.

Lovely are the magnificent altars decorated with gold leaves.
