This pious collection astride the eastern flank of the cathedral is filled with dark and brooding 17th- to 18th-century religious art, as well as some spectacular ecclesiastical treasures including chalices, monstrances and vestments. The view of the cathedral and the Plaza de Armas from the 2nd floor terrace is alone worth the admission fee.
