[1] The Manzana Jesuítica contains the University of Córdoba, one of the oldest in South America, the Monserrat Secondary School, a church, and residence buildings.

[1] To maintain such a project, the Jesuits operated six Estancias (residences) around the province of Córdoba,[2] named Caroya, Jesús María, Santa Catalina, Alta Gracia, Candelaria, and San Ignacio.

[3][4] The farm and the complex, started in 1615, had to be left by the Jesuits, following the 1767 decree by King Charles III of Spain that expelled them from the continent.

Each Estancia has its own church and set of buildings,[2] around which towns grew, such as Alta Gracia, the closest to the Block.
