| Summary: | We present an original research that has restored for the first time with digital techniques the missing San Jacinto Church in Caracas (1595 -1821) an important example of Venezuelan religious architecture and relationship between Canarias and Venezuela, highlighting its wooden múdejar cover, technology that lasted until 19th century as opposed to the rest of Ibero-America by using various multimedia technologies. Based on bibliographic sources, archeologist excavations, urban planimetric, paintings, church photography, contemporary “retables” and applying our experience in the religious heritage restoration, we have defined a typological model and generated a low cost methodology applicable to teachings for data recollection, visual simulation and dissemination by technological means. These strategies, typical of the TICs, attractive to our students and applied to other missing churches by them, will allow them to learn, understand, rebuild and value this architecture |
