Atrial Cross
The Atrial Cross of Huejotzingo is a symbol of deep historical significance. Relocated from the center of the convent atrium to its current position, it commemorates the settlement of the population that once lived in the ravines and foothills of the Sierra Nevada, in what is now Huejotzingo. This site invites reflection on the townâs origins and the formation of its historical and cultural identity.
