San Carlos Convento, Religious history museum in San Lorenzo, Argentina
The San Carlos Museum contains fifteen exhibition rooms within a colonial-style building constructed in 1792, displaying religious art and military artifacts.
In 1813, Colonel José de San Martín used the convent as headquarters before the Battle of San Lorenzo, the first battle in Argentina's independence war.
The museum preserves the original refectory where Franciscan monks gathered for meals, later transformed into a field hospital during the independence battle.
The museum opens from Tuesday to Friday between 8:00 and 18:00, and on weekends and public holidays from 10:00 to 18:00.
Virtual reality stations in two exhibition rooms allow visitors to experience the dawn of the Battle of San Lorenzo and the cavalry charge.
