Monastery of Santa Catalina Viceroy Francisco Toledo, during his visit to Arequipa, was informed by the Cabildo about his desire years ago to found a monastery of nuns. This motivated him to grant the necessary licenses for the founding of the private monastery of nuns of the Order of Saint Catherine of Siena.
