About Saltillo
Saltillo is the state capital of Coahuila, a prosperous city in the north that lost its provincial flavor quickly as it became the great cosmopolitan city that it is today. The foundation of Saltillo is a semi-desert area where a geyser shoots up from under the ground.
The city has many attractions. Mexico Plaza is the place where the North American Army, under the control of General Zacarías Taylor, encamped before the confrontation with Mexican troops, commanded by General Antonio Lopez of Santa Ana in the year 1846. This battle was called the “Battle de la Angostura” or “the Narrow Battle”.
San Juan College has been converted into the Bird Museum of Mexico. This monumental building permanently features a large exhibit of Mexican birds, representing nearly 70 percent of the native birds of Mexico.
Various architectural zones can be found in the center of the city like the Santiago Cathedral, The Governor’s Palace, with the famous murals of Almaraz and Tarazona, the Plaza de Armas, where one can appreciate the unique facades of the Coahuilense Institute of Culture, the Saltillo Casino, the Precinct of Juarez and the Purcell House.
In the historical center you’ll find the Vito Alessio Robles Cultural Center, which protects a library of more than 13.000 volumes from the 17th, 18th, and 19th century. Also visit the Alameda Zaragoza, the buildings of the Municipal Presidency, Congress Palace and the Superior Court of Justice, as well as the "Fernando Soler" City Theater. Further north in the city are the structures of Atenoe Fuente and the Saltillo Technology Institute.
