Earliest 16th-Century Monasteries on the Slopes of Popocatepetl

The conversion to Christianity of the area's indigineous people was orchestrated from the hillside monasteries of Popocatepetl.

These 14 monastersie stand on the slopes of Popocatepetl, to the south-east of Mexico City. They are in an excellent state of conservation and are good examples of the architectural style adopted by the first missionaries – Franciscans, Dominicans and Augustinians – who converted the indigenous populations to Christianity in the early 16th century.
