Is a Roman Catholic church in Antigua Guatemala. The original church was built around 1541, but suffered several earthquakes throughout its history, and the first church building was demolished in 1669. The cathedral was rebuilt and consecrated in 1680. By 1743 the cathedral was one of the largest in Central America. However, the devastating 1773 Guatemala earthquake seriously damaged much of the building, though the two towers at the front remained largely intact. These have undergone restoration work, and the cathedral has been partly rebuilt.
Entrance to the ruins is not included.

The history of El Carmen Church dates back to 1683 when the city council granted authorization for the construction of a temple under the invocation of Our Lady of Carmen. This church suffered heavy damage after the earthquakes of 1717, 1728 and 1773. Finally the building was ruined, so it had to be abandoned.

Casa Santo Domingo is a fascinating blend of history, culture, and luxury, set within the ruins of what was once Antigua Guatemala’s largest monastery. Founded in 1538 by the Dominicans, the original monastery was a magnificent structure with two towers, ten bells, and a wealth of treasures. Partially destroyed in the 1773 Santa Marta earthquake, its remaining baroque architecture, brick archways, and corridors tell the story of its grand past. Today, the site houses a five-star hotel known for its respect for history, with beautifully restored convent spaces, manicured gardens, and multiple museums displaying preserved statues, crypts, and artistic masterpieces. A visit here offers a unique glimpse into Antigua’s colonial heritage and architectural splendor.
We will visit the monastery but not the museum.*
