CENTRE-VILLE

Gracias has three churches. La Merced, built between 1610 and 1654, is the most admirable. San Marcos, on the central square, is more recent (th century). The Casa Cura (house of priests) is located next to: She once guesclin the glorious Los Borders Audiencia. The church of San Sebastian was restored recently. Next to the Casa Galeana (pretty little museum very interesting on the lenca culture). The workshop of Eduardo Galeano (nothing to be seen with the Uruguayan writer) is adjacent to Casa Casa; This young Honduran painter is nicknamed Mito, perhaps because he paints alive portraits of rural living in Honduras, his legends and myths. This very interesting character sometimes receives visitors and shows their work, while chatting about his country with a real passion. A very interesting meeting.
