BASILICA DE NUESTRA SEÑORA DEL ROBLE
Basilica in Monterrey, with a perfect neoclassical structure, with a very interesting door and modern mosaics
Visible from all four corners of the city, this imposing basilica has a perfect neoclassical structure, with a very interesting doorway and modern mosaics, as well as wooded ornaments. It owes its name to the intervention of a Franciscan monk who in 1592 protected a representation of the Virgin behind the trunk of an oak tree from native attacks. The tree served as a landmark for the construction of the building in 1854. The symbol of the city.
