Casa Hacienda Moreyra is a country residence
which was built in the spacious property
of the Counts of San Isidro, in the XVIII century.
Several years earlier, the land had been divided into parcels
of ground belonging both to Peruvian natives and to Spaniards,
one of them being Don Antonio de Rivera,
who brought olive seeds from Seville in the XVI century.
And they continued divided up until 1771,
year in which the general of the militias,
Don Antonio del Villar, appears as its sole owner.
Six years later, the property was annexed to
the count House of San Isidro,
to which it was linked until after
the Independence of Peru was signed.
Towards the middle of the XIX century,
this county estate is purchased by
Don José Gregorio
Paz Soldán y Ureta, ancestor of the Moreyra family which
has been the owner of the residence ever since.
This Casa Hacienda, exceptionally well kept for generations,
stands out in the heart of modern Lima
as a historical
monument and emblematic of the times when it
dominated the rich tillable land
of what is now
the district of San Isidro, name inherited
from its ancient land owners.
