Real Santuario del Santísimo Cristo de La Laguna (Royal Sanctuary of the Christ of La Laguna) is a Roman Catholic church located in the city of San Cristóbal de La Laguna, Tenerife (Canary Islands, Spain). The sanctuary is famous for housing the image of the Cristo de La Laguna, a devotional image of the Canary Islands.

This temple throughout its history was enriched by the Popes with indulgences which are granted to the Basilica of St. John Lateran in Rome.[1] Next to the Royal Shrine is the Plaza del Cristo de La Laguna, the largest square of the city.
