Iglesia de San Agustín

The Church of San Agustín stands as one of La Orotava's most emblematic temples, occupying a privileged location next to Plaza de la Constitución. Built in the late 17th century by the Augustinian order with support from the valley's most influential families, this religious building features a stunning three-tiered baroque façade of molinera stone, crowned by a bell gable displaying the Augustinian symbol of a heart pierced by the dart of charity.

The basilica-style interior houses true treasures of Canarian sacred art, including the venerated image of Our Lady of Grace from the 17th century presiding over the Main Chapel, alongside valuable sculptures such as Santa Monica by Fernández Estévez and the Lord of the Brotherhood. The warm lighting, well-maintained organ, and extraordinarily realistic religious images create an atmosphere of serenity that captivates both worshippers and visitors. This temple of traditional Canarian architecture in stone and clay, with Mudéjar style touches, serves as a living testimony to La Orotava's historical and artistic richness.
