Nuestra Senora de Loreto, Argentina

Nuestra Señora de Loreto, or Mission of Our Lady of Laurel, is a Catholic mission (called reduction) that was established by Jesuit missionaries in Argentina during the 17th century. The ruins were declared a World Heritage Site, along with four other Jesuit ruins in the land of the Guarani natives, during the 8th session of the World Heritage Committee in Buenos Aires, Argentina, in 1984.

What to See at Nuestra Señora de Loreto

The ruins of Nuestra Senora de Loreto are in a severe state of ruin. It is not as well preserved as San Ignacio Mini not too far away.

Visiting Nuestra Senora de Loreto

Your base for visiting this World Heritage Site is Buenos Aires, the capital of Argentina. You should find your accommodation in Buenos Aires, and then get your hotel to help you make arrangements for visiting the sights in Argentina. I recommend that you base yourself in Buenos Aires rather than a smaller Argentine city, as you will have more options here. There will be plenty of tour packages to choose from, according to the amount of time you have in your hands.
