Temple of Santa Prisca
This iconic building in Taxco de Alarcón, Guerrero, dates from the 18th century, when José de la Borda, a wealthy miner who was considered the richest man in New Spain at the time, ordered its construction after lightning burned and destroyed a first temple built in the 16th century.

It is considered a jewel of Neo-Hispanic Baroque, whose patron saint, Santa Prisca, protects the city from bad weather. It has two twin towers in the Churrigueresque style and a chapel decorated with Talavera tiles, with cylindrical columns in the lower part and Salomonic columns in the upper part. It also has nine wooden altarpieces covered with gold leaf.
