It is an impressive feat of colonial architecture and an interesting museum. The ceiling of the convent is especially amazing and a testament to the ingenuity of the pre-Hispanic people constructed the wooden masterpiece without nails and under gunpoint. Other highlights include the museum’s collection of colonial pistols and swords and a recreation of the first signing of the Argentine constitution.The convent also displays a chunk of door that bears the impressive claw marks of the mystical and mysterious “Santa Fe Tiger.
The historical museum is housed in one of the city´s oldest houses, a beautful building near the main square, Plaza 25 de Mayo. On display are portraits of the various governor´s of the town, as well as furniture and ornaments from the times when the house was inhabited. It is one of the oldest buildings in the city, well renovated and surrounded "inside out" by glamorous landscaping. All the components make for a great introduction to how life used to be in Argentina at the beginning of the colonization.
