Clavijero Palace

This majestic palace, of Baroque style, dates from the mid-seventeenth century is one of the most important architectural monuments of the city. Its doors are currently open to the public as a multidisciplinary center whose mission is to promote the dissemination of the culture of the region. It originally hosted the Jesuit College of San Francisco Javier and was subsequently a correctional facility for priests that settled here in 1824 during the Congress of Michoacán.
