In 1810 the building opened its doors as \u201cCasa de la Caridad y la Misericordia\u201d (House of Charity and Mercy), as Instituto Cultural Caba\u00f1as on November 13, 1980.<\/p>\n

Its headquarters is a property of patrimonial value for the city, for its architectural beauty and cultural and historical importance. It served as a home for orphans from 1810 to 1980. It houses 57 fresco murals -made from 1938 to 1939- by the artist Jos\u00e9 Clemente Orozco. These are located inside the main chapel, among which stands out The Man of Fire, considered the muralist\u2019s masterpiece. It was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1997.<\/p>\n

The main architect of this hospice, initially named \u201cCasa de la Misericordia\u201d (House of Mercy), was Bishop Juan Cruz Ruiz de Caba\u00f1as, who arrived from Spain to the capital of Nueva Galicia in 1796, in order to take the place left by Fray Antonio Alcalde y Barriga after his death. Although the bishop\u2019s original project was to create a foundling home, King Charles IV ordered -through the certificate issued in San Ildefonso on September 5, 1803- the expansion of the organization\u2019s purpose and the admission of the elderly of both sexes, cripples, the habitually ill, orphans and poor walkers, as well as to provide education and correction to minors. The design of the building was the work of one of the architects of the time, the Valencian Manuel Tols\u00e1. Construction began in 1805 with the participation of Jos\u00e9 Guti\u00e9rrez, academician of merit of the Academy of San Carlos, with the material direction, and the builder Pedro Jos\u00e9 Cipr\u00e9s. The building was erected on high ground far from the city, whose nucleus was what was known as \u201cSolar, house and orchard of \u2018El Sabino\u2019\u201d, belonging to the convent of San Juan de Dios, as well as on the surrounding land acquired by Caba\u00f1as from Miguel Navarro and a small lot that was ceded by the city council free of charge and in perpetuity. The perimeter of the land formed an irregular quadrilateral, measuring: 465 1\/3 varas on the North; 493 2\/3 on the South; 159 varas on the East, and 126 varas on the West.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row row_height_percent=\u201d0\u2033 override_padding=\u201dyes\u201d h_padding=\u201d2\u2033 top_padding=\u201d3\u2033 bottom_padding=\u201d3\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d100\u2033 gutter_size=\u201d3\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 row_height_use_pixel=\u201d\u201d][vc_column column_width_use_pixel=\u201dyes\u201d align_horizontal=\u201dalign_center\u201d gutter_size=\u201d4\u2033 font_family=\u201dfont-136269\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d50\u2033 shift_x=\u201d0\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 shift_y_down=\u201d0\u2033 z_index=\u201d0\u2033 medium_width=\u201d0\u2033 mobile_width=\u201d0\u2033 zoom_width=\u201d0\u2033 zoom_height=\u201d0\u2033 column_width_pixel=\u201d800\u2033 uncode_shortcode_id=\u201d734696\u2033][vc_row_inner row_inner_height_percent=\u201d0\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d50\u2033 gutter_size=\u201d3\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 row_height_use_pixel=\u201d\u201d limit_content=\u201d\u201d][vc_column_inner column_width_percent=\u201d100\u2033 position_horizontal=\u201dleft\u201d align_horizontal=\u201dalign_center\u201d gutter_size=\u201d3\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d50\u2033 shift_x=\u201d0\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 medium_width=\u201d0\u2033 zoom_width=\u201d0\u2033 zoom_height=\u201d0\u2033 width=\u201d1\/1\u2033][vc_custom_heading text_font=\u201dfont-136269\u2033 text_size=\u201dfontsize-338686\u2033 text_uppercase=\u201d\u201d uncode_shortcode_id=\u201d108347\u2033]<\/p>\n

It was left in the hands of the order of the Sisters of Charity, who used it as a hospital for the needy. Under their administration, the hospice experienced its golden age, since they were able to implement the original ideals of Bishop Caba\u00f1as in building an institution to assist the needy. They renamed the building Hospicio Caba\u00f1as in honor of its founder. The nuns\u2019 management ended in 1874, at the time of the disentailment of ecclesiastical property in Mexico, at the same time that the clergy withdrew the donation they made annually to support the place. It was then when the civil authorities took over.<\/p>\n
In 1875 there was an earthquake that damaged the structure of the hospice, which was later intervened. In 1910 the hospice returned to its humanitarian work, but it did not last because the building itself was affected by the political changes of the nation. Since 1912 the school for girls and boys was administered by the state government. With the political changes after the Mexican Revolution, attempts were made to improve the educational offerings and infrastructure.<\/p>\n
The presentation to UNESCO of the study to be declared a World Heritage Site was carried out by the Secretary of Culture of the Government of Jalisco, when Dr. Guillermo Schmidhuber de la Mora was Secretary of Culture and under the General Coordination of Carlos Guti\u00e9rrez Arce. UNESCO awarded the famous designation in 1997.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row=\u201d\u201d row_height_percent=\u201d0\u2033 override_padding=\u201dyes\u201d h_padding=\u201d0\u2033 top_padding=\u201d0\u2033 bottom_padding=\u201d0\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d50\u2033 gutter_size=\u201d3\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 row_height_use_pixel=\u201d\u201d][vc_column column_width_percent=\u201d100\u2033 gutter_size=\u201d3\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d50\u2033 shift_x=\u201d0\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 medium_width=\u201d0\u2033 zoom_width=\u201d0\u2033 zoom_height=\u201d0\u2033][vc_single_image media=\u201d142228\u2033 media_width_percent=\u201d100\u2033 media_ratio=\u201dsixteen-nine\u201d media_title_uppercase=\u201d\u201d uncode_shortcode_id=\u201d945116\u2033][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column width=\u201d1\/1\u2033][vc_empty_space][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row unlock_row=\u201d\u201d row_height_percent=\u201d0\u2033 override_padding=\u201dyes\u201d h_padding=\u201d0\u2033 top_padding=\u201d0\u2033 bottom_padding=\u201d0\u2033 overlay_alpha=\u201d50\u2033 gutter_size=\u201d3\u2033 shift_y=\u201d0\u2033 row_height_use_pixel=\u201d\u201d][vc_column][vc_gallery el_id=\u201dgallery-17359\u2033 medias=\u201d141959,141960,141961\u2033 gutter_size=\u201d2\u2033 media_items=\u201dmedia,icon\u201d screen_lg=\u201d600\u2033 screen_md=\u201d600\u2033 screen_sm=\u201d480\u2033 images_size=\u201dthree-two\u201d single_overlay_color=\u201dcolor-jevc\u201d single_overlay_opacity=\u201d20\u2033 single_image_anim=\u201dno\u201d single_h_align=\u201dcenter\u201d single_padding=\u201d2\u2033 single_title_dimension=\u201dh1\u2033 single_icon=\u201dfa fa-plus2\u2033 single_border=\u201dyes\u201d carousel_rtl=\u201d\u201d single_title_uppercase=\u201d\u201d uncode_shortcode_id=\u201d737705\u2033][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/body><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
