Parroquia San Juan Evangelista de Xochitepec
This complex dates back to the 16th century, although it is mentioned as an important chaplaincy until the 17th century.
It can be seen that the convent was not completed, or perhaps destroyed, and currently, what was built as a cloister is divided by a street with the temple.
At the entrance of the atrium, there was a Franciscan coat of arms carved in stone and a flower that recalls the compass rose. The coat of arms was rescued and placed on the rear wall of the apse.
