Places of Worship

The Parish Church of Our Lady of Light is located in the town of Los Silos on the Island of Tenerife. The temple was built on the land in which it was located in the first hermitage that was erected in the municipality, and dates from the late sixteenth century. The Church of Our Lady of Light was completely renovated at the beginning of the 20th century by the Mariano Estanga architect.

This reform gave another air to the church, although the stone façade was preserved, a new neo-gothic style was implemented on the exterior of the building.

The interior of the Church of Our Lady of Light keeps numerous religious treasures, we must highlight the images of the Christ of Mercy which is the work of the Andalusian sculptor Juan de Mesa, you can also see the Lord of Humility and Patience which is from the mid-seventeenth century and of course the Virgen de La Light. According to legend, the image of the Virgin of Light was found by a Portuguese fisherman.

The church is located in the heart of Los Silos in the Plaza de La Iglesia.
