Casa del Marqués, Historical building in central Puebla, Mexico

Casa del Marqués consists of two levels with arcades surrounding a courtyard featuring a central fountain and carved stone decorations.

The building was named after Don Francisco Javier de Vasconcelos y Bravo de Lagunas, the first Marquis of Monserrate in Puebla during the 16th century.

The architectural elements of Casa del Marqués incorporate traditional Mexican designs with Spanish colonial influences, reflecting the heritage of Puebla.

Since 1985, the Casa del Marqués houses the Preparatoria Emiliano Zapata, part of the Benemérita Universidad Autónoma de Puebla educational system.

On November 8, 1851, this building received the first telegram in Mexican history, sent by President-elect Mariano Arista from Nopalucan.
