Although it is not an old building (construction began in 1939 and was completed in 1965), it looks imposing and beautiful, as if it had been patinated to appear ancient.

It's a very beautiful church, one of the oldest in Coahuila. The interior is stunning; they don't build churches like this anymore. You can see the Spanish influence in every detail.

The Santa Rosa de Lima festival in Melchor Múzquiz, Coahuila, is one of the best experiences. The plaza fills up after mass on any date of the year to enjoy a good family atmosphere, snacks, music and dancing.
