    The church is part of a complex of religious buildings, complemented by the Cloister of San Pedro Claver and the Archaeological Museum. It was built between 1580 and 1654 in the Spanish colonial style. Originally known as the Church of San Juan de Dios, it was renamed San Ignacio de Loyola in 1622 and is now known as San Pedro Claver.[2]

    In 1921, the dome was removed and replaced by Gastón Lelarge.

    On May 7, 2022, the church officially dedicated a new mausoleum. The two-story building utilizes the existing space behind the saint's resting place. The construction of the mausoleum was sponsored by philanthropists Dr. Jaime Rodriguez Torres and Miami investor Burt Connelly.
