The Parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta turns 100 years old

The Parish of Our Lady of Guadalupe in Puerto Vallarta started construction at the beginning of the 20th century as the first church in the city. In the beginning, it was a small chapel dedicated to the Virgin of Guadalupe, until Father Francisco Ayala arrived in the city in 1915, and suggested building a church dedicated to the original Basilica of Guadalupe in Mexico City. The construction of the new church, to later be declared a parish, began on October 12, 1921, so today, we celebrate 100 years of the iconic landmark and first church built in Puerto Vallarta.
