This article reports on the vicissitudes that occurred around the construction and start-up of the Seminary School in the city of Santa Marta in the second half of the 18th century. The construction of these structures was regulated by the Council of Trent (1545-1563), the papal bull Romanus Pontifex of 1455 and the royal certificates emanating from the Bourbon monarchy. Royal documents and other documents were reviewed, and although these show that the monarchy ordered that the construction of the seminary building should begin after the manufacture of the cathedral, the ecclesiastical authorities (bishops) did not obey, which confronted them with the civil authorities (governors), which in turn caused a series of setbacks, disputes and unnecessary expenses that delayed the completion of the work.

Keywords : seminary; school; education; civil authority; ecclesiastical authority.
