XVIII CENTURY ‘LA QUINTA DE PRESA’ MANSION<br />

UNDERGOES RESTAURATION<br />

The Ministries of Culture, International Commerce, and<br />

Tourism have allied with the World Monument Fund<br />

Peru to restore and re-value the infamous Quinta de<br />

Presa mansion in Lima’s Historical Center of Rimac.<br />

During the XIX Century, the house was bought by the<br />

Carrillo de Albornoz family, who remained the owners<br />

for many years, until it was eventually purchased by<br />

the state in 1920. In 1932, Luis Sanchez Cerro turned<br />

the mansion into the Republican Guard headquarters,<br />

and finally in 1972, the INC declared the building a<br />

Historical Monument.
