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)

The Palacio de los Capitanes Generales was the administrative headquarters of the Spanish colonial government. The building on the Parque Central was built in 1558, was damaged several times by earthquakes and is now a cultural center.

A wonderfully green park in the heart of the city. Sitting on one of the benches you can watch the hustle and bustle around you.
