Until now, not in deep studies have been done about the architecture and the historical, cultural, socio-economic and natural context that conditioned it.

The colonizers in Nicaragua, besides of following the royal orders for the building, replicated technics and prior knowledge, adapting them to the lack of tools and work means, the nature and local work force. The building process was slow because it is a territory with lack of wealth, the high seismicity that destroyed frequently what was build and the lack of architects and sapphires in this phase. In this architecture, it was implanted a stylistic and design patterns, prevailing the “casa patio” with porticoed corridors and the roof structure of “par y nudillo” of nasrid influence, being implanted the “colonial” style that in the future will have been developed into the architectural, religious and housing heritage of Nicaragua, remaining as central task the proper conservation and continuous study of this architectural heritage.
