Founded in the 17th century by Pedro de San José Betancur, Hermano Pedro Hospital embodies his commitment to serving the sick and marginalized. Influenced by Franciscan spirituality, Pedro established a refuge that grew into a significant colonial hospital. The structure, with its spacious courtyards and chapel, balanced functionality with spirituality. Today, it serves as a museum and a place of pilgrimage, preserving the legacy of the first canonized saint of Central America.
