Santuario de la Virgen María N. Señora de Guadalupe
Santuario de la Virgen María N. Señora de Guadalupe, Catholic pilgrimage shrine in Mexico City, Mexico.
The Basilica of Santa María de Guadalupe features a modern circular design with copper roofing and reinforced concrete, accommodating thousands of worshippers simultaneously.
The original basilica, constructed between 1695 and 1709 by architect Pedro de Arrieta, received collegiate status in 1749 and became a basilica in 1904.
Twenty million people visit annually to honor the Virgin Mary, particularly during December celebrations marking the appearances to Juan Diego in 1531.
The sanctuary opens daily with multiple masses, offering confessional services, parking facilities, and public transportation access from Mexico City center.
The image of Virgin Mary appears on Juan Diego's tilma cloth, combining indigenous and European features, including a turquoise robe signifying Aztec royalty.
