Chapel of the Christ, San Pablo del Monte
San Pablo del Monte, Mexico
The Chapel of the Christ (Capilla del Cristo) was a Roman Catholic chapel located in San Pablo del Monte, Tlaxcala (formerly Villa Vincente Guerrero), which was built in the 18th century. It was demolished the night of July 25, 2015, by order of the barrio (neighborhood) where the chapel was located. Despite having been declared a Historical Landmark of Tlaxcala by the INAH (Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia), it would still be demolished, which meant violating one of the historic landmark protection laws. It was demolished to give a better view of the current Chapel of Christ the King, which was on one side with a view forward, which covered the old Chapel.
