Faith Route in the Southern Tucumán
Faith Route in the Southern Tucumán
Religion plays a vital role when visiting cities and countries worldwide, with faith serving as the main motivation. Tucumán is no different, and in each of its tourist routes, you can find sites and temples of significant religious, historical, and cultural importance.
In Southern Tucumán, the province's Jesuit history is evident through sites like the Ruins of San José de Lules, which include an old chapel and convent founded by the Society of Jesus in 1670, and the Jesuit Church of San Ignacio de Loyola in La Cocha, a true historical gem. Other notable landmarks are the Immaculate Conception Cathedral; the Church of the Villa de Medinas, located in one of the oldest towns in the province's interior; and the Church of Our Lady of the Rosary in Monteros, which traces back to the founding of San Miguel de Tucumán in Ibatín. Lastly, Famaillá invites visitors to explore the Gallery of Veneration Theme Park.
