Description
This long, gray and white structure is La Princesa, built in 1837 and formally the San Juan penitentiary. It now houses an art gallery featuring Puerto Rican art. Surrounding the building are gardens and a fountain.

Another feature of La Princesa are the ever changing exhibits by artists from Puerto Rico. Check to see what is coming up or currently playing by giving La Princesa a call.

La Princesa can be easily identified not only by its structure and color but by the bronze statue out in front. This statue is of Doña Felisa Gautier, San Juan's mayor form 1946 to 1968

The Puerto Rican Tourism Company has its main office in the La Princesa Building.
