• Resumen

  • An old custom viceregal dictates that in the large houses should always be a place dedicated to God. Going back a little in the history we find that Sucre was known for being a Catholic city par excellence. In the city of Sucre, a large part of its houses had a private chapel decorated with magnificent works of art in gold and silver, under the slogan "the best for God". Families chuquisaquenas wished to have the Blessed Sacrament present in their homes and this was achieved through a handout to the Vatican, who granted permission, as also to celebrate masses in their chapels and Oratories individuals, except in the days of precept.
