Mercado Artesanal Tradicional

2 reviews of Mercado Artesanal Tradicional

One of the first permanent markets

The Craft Market is in what was once the family home of Pablo Arias Velásquez in 1533 and the first mill of Salta in 1583. This aristocratic Jesuit family transferred ownership of thick adobe walls in 1760 to undertake educational work they were doing in the northeast, northwest and south of our country. In 1767 King Charles V of Spain made it clear that all property and assets of America and Spain were held by "Secular Boards" and with closed schools, universities etc. The house was owned by a former governor in 1807, bought by another family in 1829 and amended during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries.
