A lively city with a young and modern vibe Sucre

The Historic City of Sucre is authentic in terms of form and design, material and substance, as well as location and surroundings. Its buildings, architectural result of the symbiosis of local and imported styles, have been maintained and conserved, in harmony with the environment.

Sucre is home to several museums, including the Casa de la Libertad, which displays Bolivia’s Declaration of Independence; a textile museum; and a children’s museum. One of the oldest universities in South America, Universidad Mayor, Real y Pontificia de San Francisco Xavier (St. Francis Xavier University), was founded in Sucre in 1624. The city contains many examples of Spanish colonial architecture and was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1991.
