| The Templo de Santiago Apóstol was constructed between 1751 and 1758 in Querétaro, Mexico, its Baroque stone façade marked by carved niches, pilasters, and an elaborately framed central portal. Inside, the nave leads to a high altar dedicated to Saint James, long venerated in the region as a patron of conquest and pilgrimage. |
