The original church of Our Lady of the Rosary, “The Sailor”<\/strong><\/a>, had an unfortunate fate for two centuries, however, thanks to San Blas<\/strong> local’s faith, it has been rescued in the last years. Let’s learn about its history!<\/span><\/p>\n

Since its construction in 1769, the Temple of the Rosary<\/strong> was affected by various events such as natural disasters and armed conflicts that led to its decline, however, it also had great moments of glory.<\/p>\n

When galleons used to reach the Colonial port, cheerful cannon greetings and volleys were shot from San Basil’s \u00a0Fort, celebrating the event with a singing of the Salve Regina<\/em> inside its sanctuary located at Contaduria Mountain.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

There was the brotherhood of Our Lady of the Rosary<\/strong> that contributed to the temple’s construction, there even was a frigate named after her, which was later identified as\u00a0“The Princess”<\/strong>\u00a0always carrying a sculpture of Holy Mary<\/strong> beneath the title. This frigate got to travel up to California<\/strong>, Alaska<\/strong> and Manila<\/strong> in the Philippines.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, both the temple and the image suffered heavy damage, twice: In 1787 a thunderstorm caused a big fire, destroying the temple and calcining the image of the Rosary<\/strong> and in 1793, a thunderbolt tored off her right hand, the sheet and the key of the tabernacle, without touching the custody or the sacred vessels.<\/p>\n

Along with the port’s closure in the late nineteenth century, came its total abandonment and decay, leaving nearly buried all its precious inheritance, until the arrival of the Quetzal Route<\/strong> in the new millennium, the former faith in the Virgin of the Rosary<\/strong>, resumed its yesteryear importance with her subsequent coronation in 2007.<\/p>\n

Currently, this architectural and cultural gem gets all dressed up every October 7th<\/strong>, to commemorate the devotion of San Blas people to their spiritual protector and this year, you cannot miss the big celebration in her honor. Check out the program of activities<\/strong><\/a> and venture to discover this magical port!<\/p>\n
