The Basilica of Our Lady of Mercy is a minor basilica in Yarumal, Colombia, within the Diocese of Santa Rosa de Osos. Built in Renaissance Revival style as a larger replacement for the town's first church, its construction began in 1866 and was delayed by cost, civil wars, a partial collapse in 1890, and an earthquake in 1938, until its consecration in 1944. Its main façade is formed by two domed towers joined by the central nave.
