Centro Escolar Revolución, Historic school complex in Cuauhtémoc, Mexico
The Centro Escolar Revolución occupies a full block between Arcos de Belén and Niños Héroes avenues, featuring multiple educational buildings and sports facilities.
Architect Antonio Muñoz García designed this educational center in 1933 as part of the national public works movement following the Mexican Revolution.
The building walls display murals and stained glass windows created in 1937 by artists from the League of Revolutionary Writers and Artists.
The educational complex currently houses two primary schools, two secondary schools, childcare facilities, and government offices in central Mexico City.
The site transformed from the San Miguel de Bethlem women's shelter in 1683 to Belén Prison in 1863 before becoming an educational institution.
