The Convento Santa Clara is defined by its ornate Baroque facade and the massive, ruined stone arches that frame its central courtyard. This complex was established in sixteen ninety-nine when a group of nuns from the Order of Saint Clare arrived from Puebla, Mexico. They were part of a contemplative order known for strict prayer and humble living, yet their convent became a favored residence for the daughters of wealthy colonial families.
