    The Church of San Lázaro, built in the 17th century, served as part of a complex that included a leprosarium to care for the sick. Dedicated to Saint Lazarus, it symbolized mercy and charity. Its simple Baroque design features modest moldings and a main altar dedicated to the saint. Located near the general cemetery, it hosted funeral ceremonies and became a symbol of spiritual transition. Damaged by earthquakes, it was rebuilt and preserved by the community. Today, it stands as a testament to compassion and faith.

    The Church of Santa Rosa de Lima, built in the 17th century after her canonization in 1671, served as a spiritual center for Antigua Guatemala’s peripheral communities. Its Baroque façade, with niches and moldings, honors the saint’s legacy of purity and devotion. The church's single nave and thick masonry walls were designed to withstand earthquakes. Damaged in the 1717 and 1773 quakes, it declined after the capital’s relocation in 1776. Restoration efforts in the 20th century preserved its historical and spiritual significance.
