San Germán

Iglesia Porta Coeli
Parque de Santo Domingo
Wed-Sun

Dating back to 1606, this is one of the oldest churches in the Americas. It now hosts a museum of religious paintings.

San Germán's main sight is its colonial architecture, all narrow, twisty alleyways and Spanish buildings in pastel colors, some crumbling, some newly repaired. The old city is centered around the leafy plazas of Parque de Santo Domingo and Plaza Francisco Mariano Quiñones.

San Germán de Auxerre

A Spanish baroque church straddling the two plazas. Even older in theory a chapel was first built here in 1573, but the present structure dates mostly to 1737, when it was rebuilt after an earthquake.
