Inscription
of the Company of Jesus was one of the first masonry constructions of the Nueva Veracruz. The Jesuits founded schools to educate and train young people, among them the Veracruzans Francisco Jávier Alegre and Francisco Javier Clavijero, who distinguished themselves by their brilliant intelligence and dedication to study. The Society of Jesus was expelled from New Spain and in 1767 the Jesuits leave this place in exile. Clavijero, already in exile, wrote "The Ancient History of Mexico" and other works. When the convent is abandoned, it is occupied by Augustinian friars and its name is changed to San Agustín el Nuevo. The temple that faces the street of Zaragoza has a gallery; the dome and the apse were demolished to continue the street of Aquiles Serdán, when in 1916 the Federal Powers were installed in the General Lighthouse Building and the city of Veracruz became the capital of the nation.
