Misiones Department

Misiones Department - Page 1

Misiones is a county of Paraguay. Its capital city is San Juan Bautista. All this county is marked by the presence of the Jesuit reductions which took place here. In many of its cities we can find museums with rich sacred Jesuits art. Before this department or county had the name of San Ignacio, with the capital of the same name. It is a zone of large cattle farms, which explains the poor characteristic and scarce population of this department.
