XIX and XX). However it has conserved intact its Roman architectonic style and its satately air of the virreynal time, also its old spirit of the local houses. ) At first, it was a farm house for the farms that existed around; later it was designated for the
business of the wool of alpaca, vicuna and llamas - since the family Salinas settled in 19th century (their descendants are the present owners) -. The farmers arrived at the big house with their flocks of camelidaes for shearing, weigh-in and purchasing of the wool. ) In the decades of 1970;s and 1980;s the house was neglected, without maintenance, rented to more than 13 families and diverse associations, that had it literally crowded. Happily, from second half of the 1990;s the works of improvements began to its refurbish and restore value. ) In fact, the Nueva Espana building has been restored to accommodate tourists comfortably from around the world.
