Guided Tour of San Francisco Monastery
We'll gather at the designated time on Calle Ayacucho, after which we will stroll towards the esteemed San Francisco Monastery.
This architectural gem, established in 1548, transports us back to the colonial era, a period when the affluence from Potosí's silver mines fostered the creation of splendid religious edifices such as this one.
The complex features a church adorned with tiled domes, a prominent bell tower, various chambers once occupied by monks, and a crypt positioned beneath the main altar.
We will explore the prayer hall and take in the beauty of the elaborate high altar, followed by a visit through the monastery's numerous rooms, where we can appreciate the art associated with the Franciscan order.
Subsequently, our journey leads us to the catacombs, where many individuals have been interred.
As we conclude our tour after one hour, we will part ways at the entrance of the monastery.
