  • Summary

  • The Church of San Lázaro, built in the 17th century, served as part of a complex that included a leprosarium to care for the sick. Dedicated to Saint Lazarus, it symbolized mercy and charity. Its simple Baroque design features modest moldings and a main altar dedicated to the saint. Located near the general cemetery, it hosted funeral ceremonies and became a symbol of spiritual transition. Damaged by earthquakes, it was rebuilt and preserved by the community. Today, it stands as a testament to compassion and faith.
