The Institute of the Dominican Blesseds was founded with the legacy of the Bishop of Santa Cruz and with the will of a wealthy neighbor, in the house on Calle 3 Norte No. 800. In 1698 it moved to a larger house in the place now occupied by the church of Santa Rosa, purchased for that purpose by the chief constable Alonso Raboso and the Santa Americana was chosen as its patron saint. The convent remained under the supervision of the bishops and not the Dominicans.
