Designed by Salvadoran architect and sculptor Rubén Martínez under the supervision of Pope John XXIII, El Rosario Church in San Salvador was a controversial project in the 1960s. Its modern shape and the placement of the main altar challenged traditional church designs. Inside, stained-glass windows cast a spectrum of colorful hues over the parishioners, creating a vibrant and dynamic atmosphere. Today, the church remains an active Catholic place of worship, welcoming visitors and congregants throughout the week.
