The Cultural Center is located in the Casa del Faldón, on the north side of the city.

According to tradition, the name of the house derives from a famous dispute that arose during a religious festivity between a Spanish councilor and an indigenous mayor regarding their precedence in the procession. Envious of the Indian mayor's primacy, the Spanish councilor gave a strong tug to his coat, tearing off the tail. A lengthy legal dispute followed, and the Spanish councilor was sentenced to live on the other side of the river, erecting this mansion to inhabit it.

It became a Cultural Center in 1991. It has two exhibition rooms and offers a wide range of artistic and cultural activities, as well as workshops in various disciplines.
