La Merced y el Museo del Ambar
The Church of La Merced was the first convent and church founded after the initiative of four Mercedarian friars from Guatemala in 1537. The simplicity of its architecture is due to the little influence that this order had on the religious and civil life of the province. The interior of the sacristy preserves the original construction of a semicircular arch and a continuous barrel vault. In the 18th century, the main altarpiece and the sides were built, as well as the upper and lower choir.
