This digital book covers the six most important churches in Panama City’s Casco Viejo, a group that was included on the Unesco World Heritage List in 1997. The authors describe each church from an architectural point of view and through a symbolic narrative written in religious iconography. The text offers glimpses of the city’s spiritual life, and also describes the historical evolution of its religious orders. This volume is the second in Celisa Panama’s architectural heritage series.
