Iglesia de San Xavier

Swiss priest Martin Schmidt designed the present church, which was constructed between 1749 and 1752. Restoration work was completed in 1992 to beautiful effect, and the newly restored building manages to appear pleasantly old and authentic. The beguiling whitewashed interior is distinct from other missions on the circuit. Outside mass times, access to the church is via the Museo Misional next door.
