This
stately two-story-high building resembles the style of Andalusian
homes. Its walls are one vara wide and its wood coffered ceilings
are amazing. The top floor has a balcony lined with six columns.
The lintel above the door contains the following inscription: "The
Year of Jesus Mary Joseph - 1771", which is the date the building
was finished.
Nowadays it houses the Provincial Board of Historical Studies.
Santa
Fe
Santa Fe is the capital of the province of Santa Fe and the secondary
city in importance after Rosario which is 167 away. The city of
Santa Fe lies 475 km. away from the Capital City from which one
must first travel down national route No.9 a then switch to national
route No.11. Santa Fe is connected with the city of Paraná capital
of Entre Ríos, by means of the Hernandarias Underwater Tunnel. A
site worth visiting is Cayastá, located 80km. away from the city,
where the primitive city of Santa Fe -now in ruins- was founded.
Other interesting sites are the Convent of St. Francis, dating from
1680, which harbors the remains of Estanislao López and the Church
of Our Lady of Miracles which is the oldestin the whole province.
