This article analyzes the appropriation of properties by the Monarchy and by the incipient republican state, in the closing stages of the colonial period during the years of the Peruvian independence. This policy affected Church patrimony, allowing the State to use it for itself and its political appetites, though it could not retain these properties for a long period, because the sale or deviation of property ended distorting its original sense.
