Sumario:The aim of this paper is to present an analysis on general proportions in the heritage churches of Granada, in Nicaragua. Cases of studies were religious building catalogued as heritage asset, located in this geographic zone. Building recording and enrolled in Catalogues of Cultural Assets were considered in this research. Based on two consulted catalogues, the sample obtained was of 11 buildings. Two probabilistic analyses were carried out, considering the properties of the sample and the objectives of the investigation: regression analysis and cluster analysis. It was found that the buildings classified as religious, located in the department of Granada, in a single group do not respond to a single pattern of proportion. On average, they approximate the ratio 1: 2.42. However, the correlation and determination coefficients are fairly representative values. The results obtained are useful to expand knowledge in basic science in the field of knowledge of the proportions themselves, of local buildings of this kind. Fortuitously, it may be useful in future projection projects for new buildings that wish to consider this formal aspect, adopting the typological design criterion.
