Santísima Trinidad

San The church of the Santísima Trinidad owns the most exquisite Baroque façades in all of Mexico. It could even be compared with the Sagrario Metropolitano. The façade of Santisima Trinidad shows the Baroque style taken to its utmost limits, in a complex fusion of Spanish and indigenous designs. The focal point is a stone poem, created between 1755 and 1783 by the artist Lorenzo Rodríguez. It shows pinnacles, columns, angels, the twelve Apostles and Christ, resting on God.
