Highlights
Mineral de Pozos, a former mining town in Guanajuato, played a crucial role in the economy of New Spain due to the abundance of minerals in its lands. For decades, the region's mines were an economic engine, and vestiges of that era are preserved in its abandoned mines and historic haciendas.
The well-preserved colonial architecture reflects the Spanish influence, while the cobblestone streets and historic buildings tell the stories of a vibrant and culturally rich past. Mining tools and equipment, still visible in some mines, offer a glimpse into the arduous process of mineral extraction that sustained the region.
Today, Mineral de Pozos not only preserves this legacy, but also invites visitors to learn more about Mexico's mining history and its impact on the formation of the country.
Itinerary
Antigua Escuela Modelo
1 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeBuilt during the Porfiriato, the Escuela Modelo was a state-of-the-art educational centre in Mineral de Pozos, designed to instruct the children of mine workers and promote education in a region prosperous from mining. It represented a symbol of the effort to modernise Mexican society by offering technical and scientific education. Despite its decline after the mining decline in the early 20th century, its remains still reflect the importance of education in mining communities. Today, the Escuela Modelo stands as a historic site that recalls the strong relationship between education and industrial progress at the time.Mina El Triángulo
1 hoursAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThe El Triángulo Mine, one of the most significant mines in Mineral de Pozos, was key to the extraction of silver and other minerals during the region's mining bonanza. Its name comes from the triangular shape of the main structure and its system of tunnels, which facilitated access to the mineral veins deep in the earth. This mine was an economic engine for the local community, providing work for hundreds of miners and contributing to the development of the region. Although it closed along with many other mines in the early 20th century, its ruins still bear witness to the intense activity that once surrounded it.Mina Cinco Señores

Over the centuries, the mine established itself as one of the economic mainstays of the region, attracting workers from all over the country.
