Description
Uncover the complex, dramatic, and deeply spiritual history of Catholicism in Mexico on this intensive 2-hour walking tour. Mexico City’s historic core is built literally and figuratively on top of the Aztec empire. By visiting three distinctly different churches, trace the timeline of faith from the earliest Franciscan arrivals to the heights of colonial Spanish power and the emergence of uniquely Mexican Catholic traditions. Begin at what remains of one of the first and largest Franciscan monasteries in the Americas. Built using stones from Moctezuma’s zoo, this church represents the absolute beginning of Catholic evangelization in mainland North America. Learn how early missionaries adapted to indigenous cultures, the strategic choices behind building churches directly over Aztec sacred sites, and the complex process of converting millions of people to a new faith. Next, visit the Templo de San Felipe de Jesús. Located right next door, this striking Neo-Romanesque and Baroque church offers a sharp contrast to the Franciscan simplicity. It is dedicated to Saint Philip of Jesus, a Mexico City native who became Mexico's first canonized saint after being martyred in Japan in 1597. Discover how the Catholic Church in Mexico connected to the broader global Spanish empire via the Manila Galleon trade routes, and how the reverence of home-grown saints shaped a distinct Mexican identity independent from Spain. Finish your tour at the crown jewel of the Zócalo. Taking nearly 250 years to build (1573–1813), this massive structure encapsulates centuries of changing artistic tastes, containing everything from Gothic vaults to towering gold Baroque altarpieces. Learn about the powerful alliance between the Spanish Crown and Rome, where bishops frequently doubled as political rulers (viceroys). Explore the concept of syncretism (the blending of Aztec and Catholic practices), look at the stunning Altar of the Kings, and discuss the modern cultural impact of Catholicism on everyday Mexican life.Includes
