Carrera 5 11 -67, La Candelaria, Bogotá, D.C., Bogotá, Bogota, Bogotá

Where history was born. In the throbbing heart of Bogot's historic center, right across from the imposing Luis ngel Arango Library and diagonally across from the Botero Museum, stands an architectural gem that has witnessedand played a part inColombian history. This house is not just brick and mortar; it is a living memory. Antonio Morales, a hero of the independence movement who sparked the iconic Florero de Llorente revolt, lived here. Every corner breathes freedom; every wall whispers tales of revolution. With an imposing republican style, the building stands out for its fine architectural details: plinths, cornices, pilasters, lintels, and the elegant second-floor gallery that frames a French door, evoking times when architecture was art and an expression of power. Today, this heritage house adapts to changing times without losing its soul. The two-story building is distributed around a central courtyard covered by a period awning, with an entrance hall leading to a perimeter gallery surrounded by seven multipurpose rooms, bathrooms, and four commercial spaces with direct access from the street: a true canvas for housing, commercial, educational services, and institutional development projects.
