Templo de San Marcos, Aguascalientes
Templo de San Marcos, Aguascalientes, Baroque Catholic church in Aguascalientes, Mexico.
The temple displays a pink quarry stone construction with baroque elements on its facade and neoclassical features in its interior layout.
Construction of the temple started in 1655 under Manuel Colón de Larreategui's commission and took over a century to complete, finishing in 1765.
The temple celebrates two patron saint festivals: a novena on July 16 for the Virgin of Carmen and a three-day celebration for Saint Mark on April 25.
The building stands on a cross-shaped floor plan supported by large stone buttresses and features a neoclassical vault design.
During the Cristero War in the 1920s, this temple served as a center of Catholic resistance against Mexican government restrictions.
