Parroquia de San Miguel Arcangel

The most surprising attraction of San Miguel is undoubtedly its parish. A rosewood-colored Neo-Gothic church, unique in Mexico, built in the 17th century whose distinctive façade was added in the late 19th century by Zeferino Gutiérrez, an indigenous mason and self-taught architect.Seeing this church from the outside gives you the impression of being somewhere in Europe, its impressive towers will leave you speechless; inside you will notice that this church has different rooms where I personally could feel a vibe of peace and tranquility

Teatro Angela Peralta

Apart from the improvised theaters and tents that were in the Villa for the comedies and talks that are performed at parties by comedians from around the league, there was not, until the end of the 19th century, a proper theater, as demanded by the already important city of San Miguel. It is in the month of April 1871 when the construction of the Theater begins under the initiative of the Principal Administrator of Revenues Don Juan Mañón, with the help of the Municipal Treasury, and a meeting of shareholders of the main residents of the city.

Oratorio of San Felipe Neri

Much of the church's magnificence has been lost over the years, though remnants of its former grandeur can be found in the gilt frames and some beautiful artifacts: On an altar to the right of the corridor is an 18th-century painting by Michael Cabrera and one gallery contains fine work by other Old Masters. Thirty-three oil paintings represent the life of San Felipe in severe, rigid terms.The oratory has another beauty that visitors may describe as "eccentricity". Near the statue of San Martín de Porres there are humble offerings from the faithful who urgently need a miracle or who have been granted one. Most Mexican churches have this type of offerings, but the oratorio is distinguished thanks to them.
