Built over the
old palace of Inca Roca, it was the residence of Fray Vicente
de Valverde, first bishop of Cusco.
Inside there is a patio with galleries with porticoes, Venetian
blue glazed tiles, craved wooden doors, a chapel with an exquisite
artisan wooden roof, a baroque altarpiece and a beautiful
hall.
It hosts a very rich sample of colonial art like the paintings
from the Master Marcos Zapata, the collection of the Zodiac
composed of 9 pieces from the Master Diego Quispe Tito, the
collection of Corpus Christi from an anonymous author, a hand
chair, various "casullas" (priest's ceremonial dresses),
and the first organ that arrived to Peru and the Americas. |
