About

San Luís Potosí was founded in 1592, after Captain Caldera y Juna de Oñate and Viceroy Luis de Velasco y Castilla discovered gold and silver in Cerro de San Pedro. The title of city was granted in 1656 by Viceroy Francisco Fernandez de la Cueva y Enriquez de Cabrera and was confirmed by King Philip IV two years later. Built on prairie, the architecture of San Luis Potosi has a record of monuments, an important monumental wealth, both in religious and civil buildings. The historical and artistic heritage of the city can be seen through several styles such as baroque novohispano, neoclassicism, among others.
