Templo de la Concordia de Sacerdotes del Oratorio de San Felipe Neri de Puebla., Catholic church in central Puebla, Mexico.
The Templo de la Concordia is a church building in central Puebla featuring a Latin cross layout and a single-nave structure. The interior displays vaulted sections and molded details that run across the entire space.
The site received permission in 1535 for a hospital and church under the patronage of the Holy Cross. It briefly served as the city's cathedral in 1556.
The interior underwent transformation from Baroque to Neoclassical style in 1831, preserving original Baroque paintings by Miguel Jeronimo Zendejas.
The complex includes the church alongside a priest residence and the House of Exercises, now used as a primary school. Visitors can explore multiple connected buildings that form an integrated religious ensemble.
The complex houses the Patio de los Azulejos, notable for its decorative tiles. It was also the location where the Plan de Iguala was first printed, a significant document in Mexican history.
