The church was built in the 17th century and is considered one of the most beautiful churches in the valley. The church was built on the remains of the palace of the Inca king Túpaq Yupanqui. You can still see the remains of the walls on which the church stands. The outside of the church is snow white. The interior is decorated with frescoes. What is special is that not only Christian scenes are depicted, but also pictures of the Quechua chief Mateo Pumakawa. On Sundays, the morning mass is even held in Quechua - a sign of how important the old cultures still are in the small town.
