San Ignacio Jesuitic Ruins

7 At the heart of what used to be the Guarani indian territory, religious orders from Spain (Jesuits) developed the village of San Ignacio with the purpose of converting natives into Christianism. Visitors will see how these religious missions structured social life and how they must have lived. San Ignacio was founded in 1610, named 'mini'which in native's language (guarani) meant smaller as opposed to San Ignacio Guazu (bigger), developed into one of the most critical and important missions in the territory colonized by the Spanish crown.
