Estancia de Caroya
Less grand than Estancia Jesús María nearby, this quaint building with a pretty courtyard and a small Spanish-style chapel is the oldest of all the estancias. Built in 1616, it was used as a holiday home for foreign scholars, and an arms factory during the independence wars. It still boasts the ruins of an abandoned mill and dam. It is a 20-minute walk from Jesús María town center.
