Gothic Church Nuestra Señora de Lourdes in Miramar San Juan, Puerto Rico.
The land was acquired in 1906 and the first stone was placed in 1907. The design of the chapel was made by Czech architect Antonin Nechodoma, who lived in Puerto Rico. The chapel was finally opened in 1908.
Initially, the chapel was used by a Methodist Episcopal church. After that, it was occupied by the Union Church. Owners Pedro Santiago and Catalina Mejía de Santiago gave the building as a present to the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of San Juan de Puerto Rico on February 17, 1959.
Due to its unique architecture and historic nature, the chapel was included on the National Register for Historic Places on September 25, 1984. Info by Wikipedia.
