Summary

[edit]
Description

Temple and Convent of San Antonio : In 1613 construction was begun on the monastery for the religious Franciscans ascribed to the observation of the friars called dieguinos. The church and the monastery remained dedicated to San Antonio de Padua and to the care of the Province of Saints Peter and Paula of Michoacan. The church was completed in 1678. About 1700, through the generosity of Juan Caballero y Osio, the monastery and the church were transformed being adorned with walls in the rich baroque style and a magnificent altarpiece. The splendid sculptures of the vice regal period, San Francisco de Asis y San Pedro de Alcantara, were preserved. Two of the friars here, Felipe Luna and Cristobal Suarez, helped in the plans for the Independence of Mexico. <a href="http://www.historicalmarkerproject.com/markers/HM1WG2_temple-and-convent-of-san-antonio-historical_Santiago-de-Queretaro-Queretaro.html" rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.historicalmarkerproject.com/markers/HM1WG2_temple-and...</a>

"El Templo de San Antonio de Padua es una de las construcciones más antiguas de la ciudad de Querétaro. Su construcción fue encabezada por Fray Pedro de San Antonio, iniciando en el año de 1613 y finalizando 16 años después, en 1629.

El exterior del templo muestra una fachada sencilla que se encuentra frente a una bonita plaza pública. En interior –por otro lado- es una muestra de las más detalladas artes decorativas de la época, con retablos de madera y ornamentos cubiertos con hoja de oro. Aunque el sitio fue dejado prácticamente en la ruina durante el año de 1861, fue restaurado en 1878 por el Fray Manuel Vázquez, dejándolo prácticamente como se encontraba al momento de su inauguración.

En el templo se venera principalmente a la imagen de Nuestra Señora de Los Remedios. Se cree que ésta obra por la salud de los enfermos y ayuda a los fieles en sus necesidades.

Desde el año de 1867 hasta 1878, el sitio fue convertido en un cuartel durante el tiempo que duró el sitio militar de Querétaro. Decenas de retablos fueron dañados y posteriormente sustituidos, aunque con estilos distintos a los originales. Prácticamente todos los que se encuentran hoy en día son de estilo neoclásico."
