Córdoba, preserves the core buildings of the Jesuit system: the university, and the church and residence of the Society of Jesus.
The Jesuit Blok - Manzana Jesuítica - contains the University of Cordoba, one of the oldest in South America, a church, the Monserrat Secondary School, and residence buildings. To maintain such a project, the Jesuits operated six Estancias (Ranches) around the Province of Cordoba, named:
The farm and the complex, started in 1615, had to be left by the Jesuits, following the 1767 decree by King Carlos III of Spain that expelled them from the continent. They were then run by the Franciscans until 1853, when the Jesuits returned to America.
Each Estancia has its own church and set of buildings, around which towns grew, such as Alta Gracia, the closest to the Block. The Estancia San Ignacio no longer exists.
The Jesuit Block and the Estancias can be visited; the Road of the Jesuit Estancias has around 250 kilometres length.
