Sights in Santa Ana

  1. A

    Teatro de Santa Ana

    The Teatro de Santa Ana is an opulent renaissance-style building constructed using funds from an export tax on coffee beans. The epitome of wealth, excess and culture, it features stained-glass windows, marble staircases and immaculate detail. In 1933, it was converted into a movie house, and, after a hefty facelift, is now a theater again.

    Catedral de Santa Ana

    The most notable sight in Santa Ana is its large neo-Gothic cathedral, which was completed in 1913. Exquisite ornate mouldings cover the church's entire front and the high arches enhance a sense of stillness and spaciousness. A spooky figure of the city's patron saint, Nuestra Señora de Santa Ana, greets you as you enter.

  3. C

    City Hall

    Built over 53 years, the City Hall has one of the most beautiful colonial facades in the country. There's not much to see inside - just rows of offices and lines of people - but if you're curious, there is a pleasant center courtyard where you can sit and take in all the movement.

    Museo Regional del Occidente

    Located in the former Banco Central de Reserva, the Museo Regional del Occidente gives a good historical overview of the west, including a display of archaeological artifacts. An entire room is also dedicated to the history of Salvadoran money - great for numismatic buffs.
