Las Capuchinas (Convento de Las Capuchinas)

Las Capuchinas, also known as Convento de Las Capuchinas, stands as one of Antigua’s most visited ruins. Unlike other convents, it did not require a dowry for women to join, making it unique in its historical context. The building, a masterpiece of colonial architecture designed by architect Diego de Porres, showcases the intricate and elegant design typical of the era. Today, visitors can explore the well-preserved ruins and visit the art museum located on the second floor, offering a glimpse into the cultural and artistic heritage of Guatemala.
