Jesuit Block, Historical city block in Córdoba, Argentina
The Jesuit Block comprises several colonial buildings, including a church, residential structures, and the National University of Córdoba, forming a complete urban ensemble.
The Jesuit order established this architectural complex in the 17th century, operating it for 150 years until their expulsion from Spanish territories in 1767.
The buildings display a combination of European Baroque architecture with local materials and techniques, reflecting the interaction between Spanish and indigenous craftsmen.
The site remains accessible through guided tours, allowing visitors to explore the Church of the Society of Jesus and learn about colonial educational practices.
The ceiling of the Jesuit church reveals naval construction techniques, as its architect previously worked as a shipbuilder.
