The Municipality of Córdoba presents a new edition of “The Night of the Temples: Opening Doors”. The initiative proposes a multi-religious circuit, with music, activities and visits to churches, mosques, synagogues, historical and modern temples that represent the plurality of cults that coexist in our city.
In one more example of this religious synergy that adds public institutions, the Directorate of Worship and the General Directorate for the Promotion of the City, dependent on the Secretary of Government and General Management of the Cabinet, with the accompaniment of the Interreligious Committee for Peace (COMIPAZ ), the doors and hearts of 25 temples will be opened. The new edition will be Thursday, September 22 from 8:00 p.m. to 12:00 p.m., with free admission.
The activity, which is part of the multiple proposals prepared by the municipality within the framework of the “Month of Tourism”, will be an invitation for residents and tourists to discover the spiritual, theological and historical heritage behind the walls of the different creeds.
The Night of the Temples proposes going through the history of Mercedarians, Franciscans, Jesuits, Dominicans, Catherines, Teresas, Carmelites, Evangelicals, Mormons, Jews, Greeks, Armenians and Muslimsshowing the origins and religious diversity that is the essence of Córdoba Capital, with activities in each of the spaces.
Free transportation to visit the different congregations of the city
This year also, the visit to the congregations will have special and free transportation. The groups will leave from the esplanade of the Cathedral, Plaza San Martín and will take the participants to the different traditional neighborhoods of the city, such as Alta Córdoba, visiting the Church of the Congregación Mercedaria, San Vicente, the Church of the Congregación de las Tertiary sisters Saint Margaret of Cortona and the Church of the Congregation of the Slaves of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
