Chiloe Church

The Churches of Chiloe in Chile's Chiloe Archipelago are a special structural marvel in the Americas, and a standout amongst the most noticeable styles of Chilota engineering. Not at all like traditional Spanish frontier design, the places of worship of Chiloe are made totally in local timber with broad utilization of wood shingles. The houses of worship were worked from materials to oppose the Chiloe Archipelago's damp and stormy maritime atmosphere.

Worked in the eighteenth and nineteenth hundreds of years when Chiloé Archipelago was as yet a piece of the Spanish Crown belonging, the houses of worship speak to the combination of European Jesuit culture and neighborhood local people groups' ability and customs; an astounding case of mestizo culture.
