Itinerary

Arco de Santa Catalina

15 min

Arco de Santa Catalina, also known as Santa Catalina Arch, is one of the most recognizable landmarks that can be seen in the city of Antigua Guatemala, Arco de Santa Catalina is certainly one of the most iconic ones, since it is featured everywhere when Antigua Guatemala is mentioned.
Convento de las Capuchinas

10 min

The Capuchinas Convent was the only convent that allowed low-income women to enter, since the other convents demanded a dowry, which meant goods or money that a woman's family contributed to the convent or religious order to which he was to belong

According to experts , some of these cells were for the nuns with better economic possibilities. At the entrance of the Tower you can see side chambers that were used as bathtubs. They are narrow rooms with a window and two small tubs.

Next to these cells there is a narrow space with a small hole where firewood was placed to heat the water. The building has a drainage system made up of individual channels installed under each cell and reaching the same storage tank.The specialist shares that due to its characteristics, this is considered one of the first apartment buildings in Latin America.
Tanque de la Union

10 min

In La Antigua Guatemala only the big houses had a place where you could wash. For this reason, most of the inhabitants —housewives— went to public laundries.

The La Unión Tank (Tanque de La Unión), known in the past as the Plaza de San José, is one of the most representative washing places in this city. It was inaugurated on February 3, 1853. Its arches are neoclassical in style.

The Union Tank will function as a social meeting point for daily talks.

The tank has 22 sinks in total. A LOT OF GOSSIPING
Iglesia de San Francisco El Grande

10 min

The most outstanding detail of this enormous church is its VIA SACRA that was built on Calle de los Pasos, so called because of the 1,322 steps that Jesus walked from the Praetorian palace to the hill of El Calvario, where he was crucified. This route is known as the Via Sacra, and the 14 stations were carried out on it.

It is one of the few religious structures that survived both the Santa Marta earthquakes in 1773 and the subsequent transfer of the capital from the Captaincy General of Guatemala, then known as Santiago de los Caballeros de Guatemala to a new location. The parish of El Calvario has remained open to worship since its foundation on November 19, 1618 and is recognized for having been built by the holy Brother Pedro de Betancur.

The temple was founded in the hermitage of Vera Cruz in 1664 and since 1689 it was known as the Congregation of San Felipe de Neri. Due to the 1717 San Miguel earthquakes, the building was damaged, and its reconstruction was completed in 1730 under the direction of the Chief Architect Diego de Porres. After the Santa Marta earthquake in 1773, the church moved to the facilities of the parish of Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, when it moved to Nueva Guatemala de la Asunción. Its façade boasts Renaissance architecture and is made of stone, like the Capuchinas church, a characteristic that differentiates it from the other temples in the town
