Casa Aguayo, Colonial government building in Centro Histórico, Puebla, Mexico

Casa Aguayo features stone arcades surrounding a central courtyard with a fountain, displaying traditional Mexican colonial architecture elements throughout its structure.

The building, purchased in 1644 by Juan Martínez de Aguayo for grain storage, later became part of Colegio Carolino in 1790 after the Jesuits departed.

The structure represents the administrative center of Puebla, functioning as the headquarters for the State Government Secretariat of Puebla.

Located at 14 Oriente 1204 in Barrio del Alto, visitors can access the building through public transportation or walking from Centro Histórico.

The building transformed from a pig farm known as La Marranera to the current executive power seat of Puebla state government.
