15 San Francisco Church, Convent and Museum in Lima, Peru

The San Francisco Church and Convent with its three bell towers was finished in 1746. Dedicated to Saint Francis, the Iglesia y Convento San Francisco were designed in a stunning Spanish Baroque style. This Roman Catholic complex contains two chapels: El Milagro and La Soledad. Inside the monastery are numerous frescos, an amazing library with over 25,000 volumes of religious works and the Museo y Catacumbas with more than 30,000 skeletons arranged in patterns. The latter is interesting but kind of macabre.
