Parish Church of Purísima Concepción (Immaculate Conception)

The Church of the Immaculate Conception
is in the Plaza Juan 23 in Fortuna.
This church is in the Baroque style.

The church was built between 1728 and 1744,
but it has had some some changes over time.

and is divided into three important parts.

preserved since the construction of the church.
Some of these works are:
