Instituto Cultural de León
In addition to its fame as a forum for cockfights, they say the 1797 structure was where Mexican national hero Francisco I. Madero called on the people of León to join the 1910 revolution. Other uses included a bullring, a theatre, a school and a lucha libre arena where wrestling legends Santo and Blue Demon went mano a mano. After a 2015 restoration it became a landmark space for Guanajuato’s statewide cultures.
