The Church of Nuestra Señora de Las Mercedes is a colonial Gothic church located in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.It is part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site "Colonial City of Santo Domingo". The construction of this religious building began in the year 1549, and was completed in 1616, built by Rodrigo de Liendo. It was an ancient seminary, later a monastery. This building was seriously damaged during the invasion of the English corsair Sir Francis Drake in 1586. The Church of Nuestra Señora de Las Mercedes has a wide vaulted nave with side chapels located between its buttresses. It has a high choir, an octagonal apse and a high altar in the Baroque style.

According to official signage on the side of the building, stone mason Rodrigo de Liendo constructed Iglesia Nuestra Señora de las Mercedes, a convent church, between 1527 and 1555. In 1653, Pedro Portillo added the first addition, while Pedro de la Rosa added a second addition in 1917. After the Trujillo Era, from 1968 to 1972, the government funded the latest restoration of the building. The sign also claims that the church has the only gothic style arcade on buildings in...

Construída después del 1527, por Rodrigo Gil de Liendo. La obra interrumpida, fue retomada en el 1530 y pudo ser terminada presuntamente en el 1555, por ayuda de Carlos V.

El corsario Francis Drake en el 1586 la deterioró, y los ciclones del 1615 y 1628 destruyeron el techo.

Fue restaurada en el 1635 por Pedro de Portillo, quien construye la torre y restaura la bóveda, con dos arcos en bloques, la nave, las bases de la fachada y el frontispicio.  En el 1673 la cúpula de la capilla mayor es abatida por el terremoto.

En el 1678 se le atribuye a Pedro de la Rosa, la construcción de la puerta lateral y la de la torre norte, de estructura pesada, perfectamente cuadrangular de 27 m. de altura, entre sus campanas una es del acorazado Menphis, naufragado en el ante puerto durante un tornado el 29 Agosto 1916. En la iglesia vivió entre 1615 y el 1618 Fray Gabriel Tellez, más conocido como Tirso de Molina, autor de más de trescientas comedias, quien murió...

Одна из самых исторических церквей Санто-Доминго возвышается над улицей Лас-Мерседес и была построена испанцами для утверждения католицизма в Новом Свете. Несмотря на многочисленные катастрофы, в том числе землетрясения и пиратские вторжения под руководством сэра Фрэнсиса Дрейка, здание сохранило свой первоначальный дизайн, включая боковые часовни, отмеченные готическими сводами, и алтари с элементами барокко. Названные в честь покровителя страны, здесь во время Пасхи и Рождества проходят свадьбы, а также важные мессы, а 24 сентября официально отмечается День Богоматери Мерседеса.
