20의 퀘르가지 명소 & 주요 장소

One of the largest parks in Guadalajara, with shade and recreation.

Beautiful on the outside, spectacular on the inside. It is a work of art that no one should miss. The events held in its courtyard, such as the Guadalajara Storytelling Marathon, are also spectacular.

Parque de la Concordia is a large green area in the center of Guadalajara and the most representative park in the city. It is located next to the historic center and at the beginning of an axis of green areas of approximately one kilometer that also make up the San Roque, Las Adoratrices and Fuente de la Niña parks.

The city of Guadalajara owes one of the best architectural ensembles of the late nineteenth century to the patronage and philanthropy of María Diega Desmaissieres, Duchess of Sevillano, Countess de la Vega del Pozo. Around 1881, the Duchess commissioned Ricardo Velázquez Bosco to build a vast complex of buildings, destined for charitable establishments and a family vault, to the southwest of the city, next to the current San Roque park.

The Co-Cathedral Church of Santa María de la Fuente is located in the square of the same name, next to Doctor Santiago Ramón y Cajal street. In this church, whose origin dates back to the late 13th or early 14th century, there are three main styles: Mudejar, which defines the brick doors, with pointed horseshoe arches, and the tower, initially freestanding; the Renaissance style, incorporated at the beginning of the 16th century, in the porch, with characteristic capitals from Alcarria, and, finally, the Baroque, in the interior vault.

The history of the Infantado palace, of the Dukes of Infantado, the main house of the Mendoza family, can be summarized in four acts: its construction, begun in 1480 and completed at the end of the 15th century, under the direction of Juan Guas; its reform, by the fifth Duke of Infantado, between 1570 and 1580, which introduced Renaissance elements; its ruin, due to a fire in 1936, and, finally, its restoration in the sixties, slow and debatable. Even today, transformed and mutilated, it is a magnificent and surprising building.
