El Templo de Nuestra Senora de la Salud

My favorite church in San Miguel. It sits between the Oratorio de San Felipe Neri (too many churches, never went in that one), the Plaza Civica with its huge statue of Allende and the College of San Francisco.

This church is dedicated to 'Our Lady of Health' and is very simple. Above the front door is a huge but rather unadorned clam shell (San Diego in Spain used shells for baptisms), it is one of the least adorned church facades in town.

The painting of the walls and ceiling inside are wonderful and there's an icon to the Holy Child of Health on the left at the front of the church. His altar is full of everything from milagros to Tonka trucks.
