Iglesia de la Merced
Cali’s oldest church dates to 1545 and was the site of the city’s inaugural mass. The whitewashed Spanish colonial building, a national monument, holds the 15th-century carved wooden statue of the Virgen de las Mercedes, Cali’s patron saint of the city, on top of the gilded baroque altar.
