Nestled on the slopes of the Milpa Alta Valley lies San Jerónimo Miacatlán. This “Place of Reed Beds” is a Pueblo Originario, brimming with history and culture. San Jerónimo Miacatlán shares its valley with Villa Milpa Alta and the smaller San Agustín Ohtenco. Ravines, most notably Tlauhcomolco, crisscross the area, shaping the town’s character. Originally, San Jerónimo was further up the mountain. The residents were relocated down the slope to what’s now “Sanjerónimo Zolco”, joining with people from San Francisco Tecozpan. At the heart of San Jerónimo Miacatlán stands a magnificent 16th-century church. Its 17th-century bell tower reaches towards the sky. This Franciscan-style San Jerónimo Church became a historical monument in 1932. The town is also known for a branch of FARO Milpa Alta. It’s a hub of learning, drawing people from across the region to study Náhuatl, printmaking, dance, and visual arts. A visit to San Jerónimo Miacatlán isn’t complete without exploring this vibrant center of creativity, or experiencing the bustling local market. San Jerónimo Miacatlán offers a glimpse into a dynamic community, where history and modern learning intertwine.
