Description

The Zaragoza church is located in a neighborhood with the same name, a couple blocks northwest of the central park. The exact date of construction is not known, but it is estimated that construction started between 1884 and 1886, and ended in 1934. The church is a real mixture of different architectural styles. Not only can eclectic and romantic elements be recognized in the facade, a certain militar style is also present. The high towers constructed with hewn stones and big pillars give the building also a castle-like image.
