Quinta Touché, Heritage estate near Paseo Bolívar, Chihuahua City, Mexico
The red brick mansion extends over 741 square meters with three levels, featuring adobe walls, plaster finishes, mosaic floors, and wooden doors and windows.
The property, built in 1904 by architect George King for Jacobo Touché, served as a military hospital during the Mexican Revolution where General Toribio Ortega died.
The estate represents early 20th century English architecture in Mexico, combining local materials with European design elements on land formerly part of San Felipe Cemetery.
The building currently houses the Municipal Institute for Women and contains a museum dedicated to General Toribio Ortega with exhibits about the Mexican Revolution.
After a card game incident where the loser cried in the main hallway, locals named this building Quinta de las Lágrimas (Estate of Tears).
