The Sanctuary of Saint Rose of Lima (Spanish: Santuario de Santa Rosa de Lima) is a sanctuary dedicated to Saint Rose of Lima (born Isabel Flores de Oliva). It is located in the remains of Oliva's house,[1] including the well used by the family, which serves as a highlight of the convent among visitors.[2][3]
Because it was the residence of Rose of Lima and her family, it is also the location of the miracles attributed to her.[4]
The sanctuary was inaugurated on August 24, 1992, after being remodeled. It also features a painting of the Saint carried by Miguel Grau among the Huáscar.[5]
