San Francisco Convent Church
It is considered Baroque style, dating from the eighteenth century. The tower was built in 1885. Its interior is
also Baroque style. Franciscan monks have been highly appreciated in the country, it is said that they were the
first who came to this area long before Captain Alonso de Mendoza, founder of the city. So much so, that the
chief Quirquincha allot them a part of the land to build a monastery, the current church and convent.
