Iglesia Santa Maria de Loreto, in Achao - Jesuits began building it in 1764 but it was finished after 1767, when the Jesuits were expelled from the New World. This is another Patrimonio de la Humanidad Chiloe church. This one is constructed of cypress and alerce wood, held together with pegs, not nails.
