It’s designated as a World Monument in 2016 😎😎😎 despite its current state of disrepair, brought about by a devastating earthquake in 1940.

The WM designation is a tribute to its historical and local folklore significance to the origin of Lima’s Barranco Borough as a fishing village.

Originally built in the 1870s, the neo-Gothic building of the Hermitage apparently underwent several reconstructions from destructions due to the War of the Pacific in the 1880s followed by natural disasters culminating in the 1940 earthquake. It has closed to the public since 1960. Emergency repairs have been going on since then.

As it stands since its WM designation, the roof is in very bad shape. IRONICALLY, the roof especially the “barebones” of the belfry looks so eerily pleasing 😎😎😎 as though it’s the ruins of a medieval castle. It looks the home or favorite sunning spot of a flock of huge vultures (gallinazos).

—- IF EVER reconstruction re-starts perhaps the architects might just reinforce the belfry and, for aesthetics or artistic reimagination, leave the open skeleton-like...

History of the Father without a Head. The story tells that in XIX, the church was occupied by a priest of bad tendencies, bad character and a visibly disordered life, generating antipathy in the parishioners. A strong earthquake ocurred in Lima that caused one of the domes to collapse and the steel bell to fall on the priest s head, crushing it and leaving only a blood stain and bones scattered in the area. As in life he was evil, they say that God imposed on him as a punishment to wander forever without his head. They say the neighbors of the place that continues to suffer and they see him at night walking whith his habit but...

La iglesia La Ermita es un templo católico ubicada en Santiago de Cali, Colombia. Originalmente fue una construcción pajiza de comienzos del siglo XVII, establecida en las cercanías del río Cali y dedicada a Nuestra Señora de la Soledad y al Señor de la Caña.

Esta antigua ermita era una construcción sin mucho valor arquitectónico conocida únicamente a través de una pintura de Farfán. Era una construcción muy sencilla, como lo son la mayoría de las antiguas construcciones en el Valle del Cauca. En el terremoto en 1787, la sencilla iglesia fue derribada y de ella únicamente se conservó la imagen del Señor de la Caña.

En 1942, se construyó la iglesia que se ve hoy en día, la cual es uno de los referentes del paisaje arquitectónico de la Ciudad de Cali. La actual construcción es una iglesia neogótica en miniatura, y como muchas iglesias neogóticas en América está inspirada en la Catedral de Ulm, Alemania. La nueva ermita está dedicada a Nuestra Señora de los Dolores y en su interior conserva la antigua imagen del Señor de la Caña en el altar lateral izquierdo.

Tanto el altar principal como el del Señor de la Caña, son en mármol blanco. El campanario y el reloj se encuentran en este momento en proceso de restauración.[cita requerida]

Los vitrales representan la imagen de los santos apóstoles.

La actual ermita es una iglesia de tres naves, cubierta con bóveda de crucería.La iglesia es muy visitada por gran cantidad de...

Closed since the 1974 earthquake that caused the roof to collapse, the Ermita de Barranco church still displays a nice facade (which gets regularly repainted every few years and is well kept) but is a bit of an eerie sight from the sight as it lays in ruins. It obviously no longer functions as a church, but rather serves as a reminder of the power of natural disasters and nature in general, as it is now a nesting place for so many birds.
