34 Antiguo convento e iglesia de Santo Domingo

Although the Dominican order was established in La Orotava in the late sixteenth century, it did not build its church and the adjoining convent until the following century. The church has a common plan, with side chapels commissioned by individual patrons and built at different times. For this reason the building has disparate architectural forms, both in the masonry work and the wooden roofs.

Symbols alluding to the Dominican order (the torch and the dog next to the globe) survive from the original façade, as well as a studded door with fine carvings. Inside there are sculptures and paintings from the sixteenth, seventeenth and eighteenth centuries.

Elements of note in the residential complex are the old convent cloister, reconstructed in recent times with wooden galleries that support Corinthian stone columns. Its buildings are the headquarters of the Ibero-American Craft Museum of Tenerife.
