San Roque Plaza, Public plaza in central Guanajuato, Mexico
The stone cross erected in 1952 stands in the center of the plaza, surrounded by six wrought iron lampposts against the backdrop of San Roque Temple.
The plaza space was originally a cemetery associated with the religious building until the current neighborhood configuration transformed it into a public square.
Since 1953, this plaza has served as the open-air stage for Cervantine Interludes, theatrical performances that later inspired the International Cervantes Festival.
The plaza provides a central meeting point with direct access to various local shops, restaurants, and the notable San Roque Temple in Guanajuato's historic district.
The stone cross in the plaza mirrors the design of the Cross of Cordoba in Spain, integrating with the scenography used during outdoor theatrical performances.
