Colegio San Bernardo, Colonial educational building in Cusco, Peru
The stone and adobe building features an elevated entrance above street level, Spanish colonial architecture, and traditional tiled roofs spanning multiple floors.
Founded by the Society of Jesus in 1619, the Colegio San Bernardo received its Royal College status from Viceroy Francisco de Borja in 1620.
The ground floor houses a permanent exhibition of photographs documenting the evolution of Cusco province, alongside regional artistic works.
The Provincial Municipality of Cusco maintains the building at Calle San Bernardo, which underwent structural improvements following the 1950 earthquake.
The foundation incorporates large Inca stones, while the walls combine adobe construction methods, representing the architectural fusion of two civilizations.
