METROPOLITAN REGION: TEMPLE OF MAIPU

It is located in the center of the Maipú community at 16 km. west of Santiago.

This temple has an altar for the Virgen del Carmen which is consecrated as "Patron Saint of Santiago" in gratitude to the victory of the Battle of Maipú on the Royalist Troops which took place on the 5th of April of 1818. The Museum del Carmen which has a collection of colonial furniture, religious images, historic documents and coaches, is located at the side of the temple.

I this same community, an annual celebration called "Fiesta de Cuasimodo" takes place after the Holly week. In this religious festival, the priest brings communion to the sick followed by a caravan of horses and bicycles specially decorated for the occasion.
