Information
The San Jose Church was built in 1535 and modified  between 1768 and 1770. In the interior of this beautiful building of colonial baroque style can be seen three naves, an atrium, a beautiful wooden altarpiece and several elements of  strong reminiscent Mudejar with columns that support arches in the form of horseshoe . The temple is located at the end of the alley "Jesus te ampare", being one of the best-preserved monuments representing the time of the colonial era.
