Colegio de San Nicolas Description

The Colegio de San Nicolás is reached by following Calle Galeana northwards and crossing the Avenida Madero Poniente. The original building dates from 1580 and became home to the school founded in Pátzcuara in 1540; after the Santa Cruz de Tlatelolco school (1537) it is the oldest on the American continent. It now belongs to the University of Morelia. The courtyard with fine Baroque arcades is noteworthy.
