Templo Expiatorio de Nuestra Señora del Rayo
Historic church that's taken more than its fair share of licks through its 400 year history. Established in 1661 as a hermitage dedicated to the Virgen del Rayo, the church was re-built in 1704. During the Mexican Revolution, it was burned down by Pancho Villa's troops and completely destroyed. Beginning in 1919, it was re-built as you see it today.
