16th century
colonial estate. Built on the
border of the Socabaya River, this
residence has belonged to several
proprietors through history. Originally
the property of the founder of Arequipa,
it belonged in the 16th century to the
congregation of the Jesuits who built
many enclosures, terraces and chapels.
In 1785 it was acquired by Don Juan
Crisóstomo de Goyoneche y Aguerreverre,
who converted it into the residence it
is today. The building has a main
entrance with a dramatic vestibule with
vaulted ceiling. There is also a Mirador
with panoramic views and beautiful,
intimate chapel. Admission 9 am 5 pm.
