Antigua's Historic Monuments

Antigua Guatemala, a UNESCO World Heritage site, preserves a wealth of 17th and 18th-century Spanish colonial architecture. This collection highlights the city's evolution from a regional capital to a preserved ruin following the 1773 Santa Marta earthquakes. The list features iconic landmarks like the Arco de Santa Catalina, the earthquake-shattered ruins of Iglesia San Agustín, and significant civic buildings including the Palacio del Ayuntamiento and the municipal offices of neighboring Jocotenango.
