This article describes the state of conservation of La Quinta building from the pathological opinion and the risk assessment, with the purpose of creating a preventive conservation plan, according to international methodologies. Risk, threat and vulnerability analysis is carried out using the Leopold Matrix. At the pathological level, there are; (a) 2 % damage to the ceiling, (b) 7 % to masonry, (c) 1.5 % damage to floors and, (d) 2.06 % to the roof. Although the condition associated with the presence of water predominates, there are other deterioration factors such as parasitic vegetation, anthropic action and disuse, which lead to 4 emergent actions, 26 corrective actions and 21 maintenance actions.

Keywords : Conservation state; preventive conservation; conservation plan.
