| aaahhh glorias Convento Santa Catalina The Convent of Santa Catalina Martir was the second monastery founded by the Augustine Order in the year 1613. Within 10 years, the Convent contained 110 nuns and 6 novices, who were prohibited from going out into the streets and were not allowed to see or be seen by the general public. In 1693, a bridge was built to connect the monastery to the property that had been acquired by the convent on the other side of the street, so the nuns could cross the street unseen. This bridge is now the famous landmark of Antigua |
