Iglesia San Francisco de Asís (Panama City, Panama)

This lovely church and its adjoining convent was damaged by fires in 1737 and 1756. The structure was rebuilt soon after, yet was abandoned in the 19th century. The place of worship was eventually remodeled in 1918, which changed the appearance of the façade and interior. It was at this time that the corner bell tower was heightened. In more recent years, the building was restored as a key fixture of the UNESCO-listed district of Casco Viejo, and was consecrated in 2016.

Casco Viejo (Spanish for Old Quarter), also known as Casco Antiguo or San Felipe, is the historic district of Panama City. Completed and settled in 1673, it was built following the near-total destruction of the original city, now known as Panamá Viejo in 1671. The original town was attacked by British pirates. Along with the ruins of Panamá Viejo, Casco Viejo was designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997.
