Private Tour to the Capuchin Convent Chapel made by Luis Barragan
Mexico City, Central Mexico, Mexico
Experience unavailable
Overview
While walking through the different spaces of the Chapel guided by the specialist, we will appreciate the light effects and the sacred environment that Barragan focused on bringing as an experience to every visitor. At the chapel, we will see a nun praying (24 hrs) and another one walking with us through the tour.
We will learn about the light effects of every season of the year and how the different spaces connect. We will explain all the architectural structures and the history of the convent.
Visit the sacristy, confessionals, and the lobby where the nuns receive their families. It’s a magical space and experience that immerses you in a peaceful and artistic perspective. A must-visit if you’re traveling to Mexico City.

The Capuchin´s Convent is a place of magic and mysticism. Its sacristy of emotions designed by the modernist architect Luis Barragán in 1952, is a space that inspires reflection and spirituality. The chapel, of sublime simplicity and beauty, is located inside the convent. When entering the courtyard, visitors are immediately transported to a different world, full of beauty, peace, and serenity welcomed by a beautiful Bugambilia tree, every detail of this place is a result of Luis Barragán's attention to them. From the furniture to the priest´s clothes, everything was carefully designed by Barragán. Light plays a very important role in the chapel, as natural light enters through the windows and the colors are reflected in the stone it also creates an atmosphere of serenity and tranquility that invites us to reflect and meditate. This place will connect you with spirituality, lead to a state of peace, and motivate you to discover your deepest emotions with the help of a specialist.
