Ex-convento de Santo Domingo
Next to the terrace of Mirador Wind Antiguo Punta is located the antique convent of Santo Domingo. It stands on a street with the same name. The Dominican Orden finished the construction of the convent of San Pedro González Telmo around 1695. In 1778 the convent suffered from devastating fire. The reconstruction was conducted between 1781 and 1786 by the architect José de Bethencourt and Castro. Because of the process of confiscation in 1837, done by the state, the house passed into private hands. In the nineteenth century the building was property of Luis Rodríguez Figueroa, a respected attorney and a prominent politician. He was murdered in 1936, during the Civil War, for being a republican congressman. Until 2005 the house was owned by the Rahn family when it was sold to the City of Puerto de la Cruz, its current owner. It was set to be the host of the town hall.
