Historic church restoration projects in Latin America

Overview

Various heritage restoration projects are being conducted on historic religious sites across Latin America.

In Brazil, the São José Operário Church in João Monlevade has received approval for a restoration plan focusing on altar conservation and accessibility improvements. Meanwhile, the Sagrado Coração de Jesus Church in Belo Horizonte is in the final stages of a multi-year restoration, with specialists currently working on ceiling paintings.

In Argentina, maintenance and roof repairs on the church in Purmamarca have been completed using traditional ‘torta de barro’ (mud cake) techniques involving local mud and straw. In Mexico, the Metropolitan Cathedral of Hermosillo is entering the technical definition stage of its third rehabilitation phase, which aims to repair roofs and offices following damage from heavy rainfall.
