Iglesia y Convento de la Compañía de Jesús

In Panamá Viejo, the Jesuits arrived a decade or so after Dominican friars and built Iglesia y Convento de la Compañía de Jesús, whose stone ruins are visible today. These spacious ruins of a church and convent were erected by the nuns of Nuestra Señora de la Concepción. Most of the ruins, which cover the better part of two blocks, were part of the church – little remains of the convent.
