Santuario de Nuestra Señora de Fátima
Most churches in Mexico are famous for their architecture, art, or colonial history, but this sanctuary's claim to fame stems from the late 20th century when it became known as the sanctuary for refugees. It houses four paintings of refugee virgins: the Virgin of Czeztochowa, arrived on October 20, 1957 and is of Polish origin. She was later joined by the Virgens of Lithuania, Cuba, and Romania. The church is also recognized for its replica of the Holy Sepulcher and for its stained glass window of Our Lady of Fatima.
Tacambaro's main church is a beautifully clean cathedral with a replica of the throne of God and a large number of paintings dating back to the 17th century. It was constructed by Augustinian missionaries in the 16th century. Tourists are allowed to climb the towers up to the roof.
Zocalo
The town's main plaza is a large open area with a central fountain, towering shade trees, park benches, and roaming vendors followed by a large army of strutting pigeons. Tacambaro is known for its ice cream vendors.
Historic chapel built by the Augustinian missionaries in 1538. Awesome architecture with red granite and flying buttresses. Very rustic, feels like it could be a 1,000 years old. Fairly small, but the interior has incredible paintings on the ceiling panels of the main nave.
