Temple of the Immaculate Conception

In the heart of Barichara, in front of its main square, stands the majestic Cathedral of the Immaculate ConceptionThe colonial style architectural jewel, built in carved stone. Its construction began in 1702 and was completed in 1838, becoming one of the most representative symbols of the municipality. During the day, its imposing sandstone façade changes tone with the sunlight, going from a golden yellow in the morning to a clayey ocher in the afternoon, highlighting its natural beauty.

The interior of the temple is equally impressive, with wide naves supported by stone columns and a high altar carved in wood covered in gold leaf. Its dome and ornamental details reflect the artisan tradition of the region. This cathedral is not only a historical and religious landmark, but also a tourist attraction that captivates those who visit the "prettiest town in Colombia".
