Where to go at Chihuahua

The building where it is located is considered one of the most beautiful of Chihuahua. It was built between 1907 and 1910 by Colombian architect Julio Corredor Latorre. Used as a residence of Venustiano Carranza, headquarters, prison and hospital, now the Cultural Center conducts workshops, exhibitions, concerts, book presentations and other cultural activities.

With a construction that lasted almost a century, it is the greatest architectural jewel of Chihuahua. Its towers are so identical, that views from the side seem to have only one. The facade is one of the best examples of the American baroque. Inside you can see the two major altars and their monumental organ and do not miss to admire a niche in the form of a cross that houses the image of the Christ of Mapimí.
