Querétaro - Palacio Federal (Agustinian Convent)
Near the Plaza de Guerrero, the Calle Allende Sur turns off left and leads to the Palacio Federal, a former Augustinian convent dating from the first half of the 18th c. This building, thought to have been designed by Ignacio Mariano de Las Casas, is one of the most attractive in the town. The tripartite Baroque façade with statues in the niches, and the magnificently carved arches and pillars in the cloister are a notable feature.
