SAN FRANCISCO |
| |
The Franciscan Order was founded by
Saint Francis native from Assisi in present-day Italy, toward the
beginning of XIII century. The Franciscans arrived to Qosqo by the
first years of the conquest and were located by the San Blas
district, later in the Nazarenas Square, in the ancient Qasana
palace belonging to Inka Pachakuteq in the Main Square and finally
in their present-day location over the San Francisco Square toward
1549. It is not known who the architect was that designed the
present-time building; however, it is known that Francisco Dominguez
Chavez y Arellano, a Cusquenian architect who worked as the chief
mason finished it. |
