CULTURAL PLACES & MONUMENTS
Near the SouthEastern corner of the main square, is located the House of Independence, with its white simplicity, so deep to our feelings.
At 100 mts. from the same corner to the East, we find Victoria's Church, where we venerate the Virgin of La Merced, Commandant of the Argentina Army and depositary of the ruling cane that was given to her by General Belgrano after Tucumán's Battle. These alternatives can be enjoyed with the light and sound spectacle, projected at this temple.
INDEPENDENCE SQUARE
There are so many important historical and cultural sites inside the original design of San Miguel de Tucumán, of 9 x 9 squares, that naming them would be impossible.
By standing at the Independence Square, after having admired the imponent beauty of Lola Mora's "Liberty" and remembering the dramatic exposure of Marco Avellaneda's head, we can see the monumental scale of the Govermment House, the serious facade of San Francisco, the electric treatment of the Cathedral frontspiece and an interesting frame offered by the surrounding buildings.
