Cathedral

Our Lady of Nahuel Huapi Cathedral

Located in the block limited by V.A. O’ Connor, 12 de Octubre, Beschedt, Frey and Palacios. A neo-gothic construction, the Cathedral stands in a neatly arranged park, with pictoresque paths and a playground. It opened in 1946, and Alejandro Bustillo was the genius that created this stone and concrete architecture, and charged nothing for his services.

The scupture of Our Lady of Nahuel Huapi is a reproduction of another one that accompanied Father Mascardi in his Mission, set up on the shores of the Lake in 1670.

Except for special events the Cathedral is open from Monday through Friday from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. and from 5:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m..

Virgen de las Nieves

Virgin of the Snows

At the intersection between the road to Mount Catedral and the access to Los Coihues village, there is a small corner called Virgen of the Snows. It is a classical place for religious pilgrimage, which is characterized by being surrounded by the channels of Gutiérrez creek.

The whole mounment is made out of stones from the area and the virgin is located in the most protected area of the grotto, protected by bars and a glass. The Virgin has baby Jesus in her arms, and a calm expression.

In turn, there is a large rock to practice sport climbing. Virgen de las Nieves / Virgin of the Snows is an inn often chosen both by tourists and locals.

Saint Edward Chapel

St. Edward's Chapel

This small chapel is located in the Llao Llao area, in the Nahuel Huapi National Park. The chapel was built in 1938 with a mountain style of neo-gothic characteristics, with clear European architecture influence. The project was developed by Alejandro Bustillo. In addition to its religious value, it is among the most visited attractions in the city because of its characgteristics and the national beauty of its surroundings.

The chapel is located in a soft rise approximately 300 meters from the Llao Llao Hotel and Puerto Pañuelo. The location of the chapel on high ground and the stone access stair make the assembly magnificent, and it is supplemented by the Llao Llao Hotel and Mount López in the distance.

In 1973, the chapel was adorned with a painting donated by painter Raúl Soldi, entitled "Retablo." The painting illustrates scenes from the life of St. Edward, the "Confessor", last Anglo-Saxon king before the Norman conquer. It has now been rearranged in four parts in the shape of a cross. It also stands out because of its stained glass windows, reproductions created by plastic artists Forte and Vázquez Málaga.

Railroad Station

Railroad Station

This noble construction is another that shapes the city's personality. It still services the railway from San Antonio to the Nauel Huapi (F.S.S.A. to N.H.), a broad road line established in 1934 from Puerto San Antonio, and completed the first year with the arrival of the first train to the Nahuel Huapi lake. This event turned Bariloche into an internationally known tourist destination.

Due to the peculiar geology of the area, the section from Ingeniero Jacobacci to Bariloche required significant cutting of solid rock, bridges and tunnels. It also offers a steam engine train from Bariloche to Los Juncos, which provides a touristic and historical trip.
