University architectural heritage. Contribution to the conservation of the historic center of Puebla,
Mexico
The worthy Autonomous University of Puebla is one of the best universities in Mexico. Its leadership lies
in the training of human resources that contribute to the development of the country. The free exercise
of the different professions in which men and women are trained in general and those that have to do
with law, literature, history and the fine arts in particular, have made it possible to strengthen the national
identity.
BUAP, as the University is known in the educational field, has participated in different ways in the cultural
life of the city of Puebla. The city, founded in the 16th century, offers a material heritage of 2,619 buildings
with historical value.
This extensive heritage has been rescued and preserved through its reuse for educational, cultural and
administrative purposes, assuming the social commitment to the people of Puebla and their cultural
heritage, guaranteeing its permanence in the future.
