Universidad Catolica del Tachira, a building with stories and experiences [Eng-Esp]

Greetings friends, lovers of architectural works! I am pleased to show you my visit to the old building of the Catholic University of Táchira, the house of study where I began my career and to which I owe so much. Come with me and I will show you.

This house of study has been seeing students come and go from all over the Andean region since 1962. It is a private institution but offers scholarship programs to outstanding students and scholarship work for students to help in the library, cafeteria and copy center in their free time.

I loved coming back to this place. I felt many emotions, nostalgia for the school years and I was happy to see how they keep the place so well maintained even though they now have a new headquarters that is a huge campus.

The structure was formerly owned by the Catholic church. So they still maintain the church and hold religious celebrations. The hallways with antique but perfectly polished granite give a special touch to this place.

The antique wooden doors, stained glass windows and large windows, are maintained from the original construction.

In front of the church, a building was built to house the law school. It is a rustic but modern building and I like that. My faculty was upstairs where the administration and accounting classrooms are located, but I was always in the law school, which had ample space and was very cool.

In the center of the main building is a beautiful garden. The shrubs and plants that adorned the place served as an escape for students to clear their minds after class.

The large theater, which unfortunately was closed on the day I visited, has the capacity for all students and some guests. Not only are lectures, exhibitions and university meetings held here, but also plays and musical presentations.

It has a large library which is a relief for students who cannot afford to buy the expensive texts related to their careers.

The cafeteria was my favorite area, they have a large number of tables and a varied menu for students. I loved to get out of class and take refuge in the hot breakfast offered in the cafeteria.

I was asking around and they told me that now some administration offices are located here and some classes are still active, but most of their activities are located in the new campus.

I really enjoyed visiting my old house of study. Although I only studied there for one year, it was a year of effort where I had to travel by bus for more than an hour and a half to get to class on time.

I owe a lot to this university that formed the basis of my career and taught me so many things about life.

I thank you for joining me to walk these halls of the university. See you next time, Bye!

Universidad Católica del Táchira, una edificación con historias y vivencias.

Saludos amigos amantes de las obras arquitectónicas! Me complace enseñarles mi visita a la edificación antigua de la Universidad católica del Táchira, casa de estudio donde inicié mi carrera y a la que le debo tanto. Acompáñenme y les muestro.

Esta casa de estudio tienes desde el año 1962 de estar viendo ir y venir estudiantes de toda la región andina. Es una institución privada pero ofrece programas de becas a estudiantes destacados y beca trabajo para que los estudiantes ayuden en la biblioteca, cafetín y centro de copiado en sus ratos libres.

Volver a este lugar me encantó. Sentí muchas emociones, nostalgia de los años de escuela y me dio gusto ver como mantienen el lugar tan bien cuidado a pesar de que ahora tienen una nueva sede que es un enorme Campus.

La estructura era antiguamente propiedad de la iglesia católica. Por lo que todavía se mantiene la iglesia y realizan celebraciones religiosas. Los pasillos con un granito antiguo pero perfectamente pulidos le dan un toque especial a este lugar.

Las puertas de madera antigua, vitrales y ventanales, se mantienen desde la construcción original.

Frente a la iglesia, se construyó una edificación que alberga la facultad de derecho. Es un edificio rustico pero moderno y eso me gusta. Mi facultad estaba en la parte arriba donde se ubican las aulas de administración y contabilidad, ñero siempre estaba en la facultad de derecho que tenia amplios espacios y era muy fresco.

En el centro de la edificación principal se encuentra un bonito jardin. Los arbustos y plantas que adornan el lugar sirven de escape a los estudiantes para despejar la mente al salir de clase.

El amplio teatro, que lamentablemente estaba cerrado el día que visité el lugar, tienen la capacidad para todos los estudiantes y algunos invitados. Aquí no solamente se realizan las conferencias, exposiciones y reuniones de la universidad, también se hacen obras de teatro y presentaciones musicales.

Cuenta con una amplia biblioteca que es alivio para los estudiantes que no pueden comprar los costosos textos referentes a sus carreras.

El cafetín era mi area favorita, tienen una gran cantidad de mesas y un menú variado para los estudiantes. Me encantaba salir de clase y refugiarme en el desayuno caliente que ofrecian en el cafetín.

Estuve preguntando y me dijeron que ahora en esta sede funcionan algunas oficinas de administración y se mantienen algunas clases activas, pero la mayoría de sus actividades fueron ubicadas en el nuevo Campus.

Me gustó mucho pasar a visitar mi antigua casa de estudio. Que aunque solamente estudié 1 año allí, fue un año de esfuerzo donde tenía que viajar en autobús mas de 1 hora y media para poder llega a clase a tiempo.

Le debo mucho a esta universidad que formó la base de mi carrera y me enseñó tantas cosas de la vida.

Agradezco que me acompañaran a recorrer estos pasillos universitarios. Nos vemos en una próxima oportunidad. Chao!

Bella estructura y la parte antigua esta muy bien conservada, el jardín elemento muy importante en las estructuras religiosas de la epoca debe ser un espacio muy relajante, debes conservan bellos recuerdos de tu epoca de estudiante.

Si fue un momento de nostalgia volver a recorrer estos pasillos. Esta vez en compañía de mi hija y mi esposo. Y por supuesto me dio gusto ver que se conserva tan bien.

Yes, it was a moment of nostalgia to walk these corridors again. This time in the company of my daughter and husband. And of course I was glad to see that it is so well preserved.

Wow, how cool! I brought some study facilities from a university today too, but this place takes the prize, I love the antique design and the clean granite floor. The green grass is very cool. You did your degree in a beautiful space.

It is very well preserved and that makes me happy. Thanks for stopping by and supporting my publication. Best regards

How nice to read what you say about your old school and how much you appreciate it. It must have been exciting for you to be able to visit it again, and reawaken all those memories. Nice pictures of the place.

Wow my dear, yes you have made a great effort to share many images of this beautiful place. I think if it wasn't for your post I would have never matched the beauty of this university, now I'm looking forward to go see it with my eyes someday hahaha. Thank you so much for sharing, great content!...

What a beautiful design of the university, despite being an old building, it is kept in good condition, I love the gardens and the granite floor looks shiny.

Have a great week!

Already, old buildings have some stories. Some of them have good stories, some have bad stories. Those are very nice. Thank you for post.

Greetings @chacald.dcymt. The architecture of educational institutions is crucial for the growth and development of students. And I'm glad the Catholic University of Táchira has stood the test of time in serving its loyal supporters. The fusion of rustic design and modernism will always be an interesting experience of the built environment as it especially caters to their learning needs. ☺️

It is an emblematic construction of my city that is not only a house of study, it is also a landmark. Thank you for your support 😊

Your alma mater is definitely a remarkable institution of learning @chacald.dcymt. I'm impressed by its light-colored walls that add a sense of modernism to the organic vibes of nature, brown tones, and classical details surrounding the spacious premises. Thank you for showing us a significant chapter of your educational journey! ☺️

It was good to come back and see the corridors, garden and structure well preserved. That fills me with nostalgia. Thank you for supporting my publication.

Cuando leí "edificación antigua" creí que databa del siglo XIX pero ya veo que más bien es mucho más nueva de lo que creí. Es hermosa la universidad, por otra parte me llama la atención el hecho de que la facultad de derecho está aparte del edificio, ya que aquí fue igual por muchos años, ya no, pero durante varios años la facultad de derecho de la universidad de Carabobo estuvo en el centro de la ciudad, mientras que la universidad como tal estaba incluso en otro municipio, Naguanagua, aunque es un municipio sumamente cercano.
