THE LEGACY IN CLAY: THE CERAMICS OF TONALA

Its name comes from the Nahuatl word "Tonallan," which means "place where the sun rises." It is a joyful place, full of culture and history, with an ancestral craft tradition that dates back to pre-Hispanic times.

Its enormous pottery prestige has grown and consolidated as one of the best in the world, to the extent that a significant percentage of its production is currently exported to destinations with renowned ceramic heritage, such as Germany and Japan.

In Tonalá, other crafts are also practiced, such as wrought iron, papier-mâché, embossing, and blown glass, among others.
