Inauguration of the Basilica of Our Lady of Guadalupe. Manuel Arellano, ca. 1709.
Pope Francis celebrated mass here.
Didn't I hear they found an Aztec calendar underneath some of these stones?
Your link says the statue has been transferred to the new basilica, can be seen from any spot in the building.[/center]
Great place for the image of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
