History
The Franciscan fathers arrived in Arequipa in 1551. The following year they founded their convent on the land donated by the rich encomendero and merchant Don Lucas Martínez Begazo, with Father Fraile Alfonso Rincón taking charge of the work.[4] The church stands poorly and provisionally, since the refectory used to be in the place of the first church. The residents of Arequipa request the construction of a temple for the Franciscans, for which they offer donations and alms.[4] In 1569 a contract is signed with the architect Gaspar Báez and the work begins immediately, its walls are made of tuff and its brick vaults of a single nave like all the churches of Arequipa, later the presbytery is added and finally the collateral naves at the expense of the canon Don Ignacio Gregorio de Adriazola.[4]
