Casa Creel, Neobaroque monument in central Chihuahua City, Mexico

Casa Creel displays intricate stone carvings on its facade and stands between Juarez and Colon streets in downtown Chihuahua City.

General Luis Terrazas commissioned the construction of this building between 1893 and 1894 to establish the headquarters of Banco Minero Chihuahuense.

The building served as both a residence for Governor Enrique C. Creel and a platform from which President Porfirio Diaz addressed citizens in 1909.

The structure maintains its position as a commercial center, housing offices of Grupo Intermex following its restoration in 1980.

Before Casa Creel's construction, the site contained Portales Betancourt, where Mexican writer Martin Luis Guzman was born in 1887.
