All that survives of the original monastery is the church, with part of the cloisters. In 1627 Our Lady of the Fields Chapel was added to house the stone statue of the Virgin, who was deeply venerated by the indigenous communities and farm workers in the area. La Recoleta stands in the middle of Centro Internacional, one of the most important financial centers in the city.
