Santa Clara Convent
Ruins of a Poor Clares convent with a large cloister and fountain, facing Tanque La Unión.
The Santa Clara convent was founded in the late 17th century by Poor Clare nuns who came from Mexico. It was rebuilt after the 1717 earthquake and damaged again in 1773, and since then its ruins have been one of Antigua's most photogenic corners.
The most impressive parts are the cloister, with two levels of arches around a large fountain, and the church facade, which still keeps some of its decoration. The ruins face the park and Tanque La Unión, so it is easy to visit both.
