Religious buildings
Read moreBuilt between 1953 and 1987, this "stone cathedral", also known as Our Lady of Lourdes of Canela, is the city's main attraction. This imposing building in English Gothic style is dominated by a 67-metre high bell tower with a carillon of 12 Italian bronze bells. Inside, the frescoes painted by the gaucho artist Marciano Schmitz represent the Apparition of the Virgin, the Allegory of the Angels and the Annunciation. You can go up to the bell tower to admire the landscape (entrance fee for the bell tower).
