Study Abroad in Antigua, Guatemala
Studying Abroad at Casa Herrera is a unique experience. The Casa is a beautiful expression of the Spanish Colonial architecture and it is fully renovated with all modern ammenities. Students take part of learning a broad range of subjects, along with immersion into the Guatemalan culture.
Antigua is located high in the volcanic highlands about 45 minutes from Guatemala City. This charming colonial town is one of the most beautiful communities of Latin America. It was founded by Spanish settlers in 1543, and soon thereafter became the seat of Spanish colonial government for the Viceroyalty of Guatemala. In the eighteenth century, the capital was moved to present-day Guatemala City, thus preserving much of Antigua’s present charm.
As one of the most important cultural and artistic centers in Central America, Antigua has been designated an UNESCO World Heritage Site and draws a large number of international visitors and students every year
