6:55 The Mausoleum of General San Martín guarded by statues representing Argentina, Peru and Chile In 1880, the remains of General José de San Martín were brought from France and placed in a mausoleum, reachable from the right aisle of the church. The mausoleum was specially designed by French sculptor Albert-Ernest Carrier-Belleuse, with marble of various colours. The black sarcophagus is guarded by three life-size female figures that represent Argentina, Chile and Peru, three of the regions freed by the General. The mausoleum also has the remains of Generals Juan Gregorio de las Heras and Tomás Guido, as well as those of the Unknown Soldier of the Independence. José Francisco de San Martín y Matorras (25 February 1778 - 17 August 1850), known simply as José de San Martín (Spanish pronunciation: [xoˈse ðe sam maɾˈtin] or "the Liberator of Argentina, Chile and Peru", was an Argentine general and the primary leader of the southern and central parts of South America's successful struggle for independence from the Spanish Empire who served as the Protector of Peru. Born in Yapeyú, Corrientes, in modern-day Argentina, he left the Viceroyalty of the Río de la Plata at the early age of seven to study in Málaga, Spain.

Thank you! This made the resting place for the generals and soldiers who librated the three biggest countries in Spanish Empire. It is impressive, making the Metropolitan Cathedral of Buenos Aires one of the most important Churches in South America.
The replication of this architecture all around the world is enough to tell you they were built under the 1000 years reign of Christ , human history is interesting, revolving around Christ the true peaceful king
