Mural of a Brief History of Patzcuaro
The “Mural of a Brief History of Pátzcuaro” was inaugurated in 2019, as part of the celebrations for the 485th Anniversary of our Magic Village. The mural is found inside the Town Hall, in front of our Plaza Vasco de Quiroga, a very short distance from our Hotel Mansion Iturbe.
This mural, which captures a brief history of Pátzcuaro, was executed by the renowned Michoacan artist, Maestro Juan
Torres Calderón.

The Mural is painted with vivid
colors. In the center we find our Virgin of Health of Pátzcuaro
and scenes as representative as the Night of the Dead and important
individuals such as Don Vasco de Quiroga.
We see our famous lake, fish, nets, and
people of the communities in the course of their daily lives performing
different trades, such as fishing, cooking, and creating artisan ware.
Other traditions and folklore are depicted handsomely.
Examine the work carefully and leisurely,
appreciating the different levels of detail that the artist incorporated into
his work. The mural renders much life and color to this 16th century
building.
After visiting this splendid mural, you
will appreciate and better understand the traditions and identity of our Magic
People.
