Conception Church in Cajamarca is known under the name “Church of the Nuns.”
The church of the nuns is located at the intersection of streets Amalia Puga and William Urrelo. Completely made of volcanic stone, however, is a very simple architectural style and sober – Neoclassical.
The facade has a bell tower and its interior is found chapels and altars carved in wood or cast in bronze. The construction of this church was completed in 1.806.
The front of the convent of the nuns is a picturesque and grotesque version of Cajamarca domestic architecture with diamond points covering the pilasters and frieze.
