With the permission of the first bishop of Guatemala, Francisco Marroquin, the Mercedians, who were mainly active in Peru, attempted to build a church and monastery in Antigua with great difficulty. It is thanks to the construction instructions of the architect Juan de Dios Estrada from 1749 that La Merced survived the 1773 earthquake relatively well. (Travel guide Reise Know how Guatemala)
