Fodor's Expert Review Iglesia de San Lorenzo

Potosi Religious Building/Site/Shrine

Potosí's most spectacular church, built between 1728 and 1744, has some of the finest examples of baroque carving in South America. Elaborate combinations of mythical figures and indigenous designs are carved in high relief on the stone facade. If the front doors are locked, try to get in through the courtyard.
