Historic Hotel
What is the history of the property?
The main house of Mesón de Leyendas has gone through different stages during its existence, part of its history is recorded in the books of the National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH). This place was the main inn and meson of the town about 200 years ago, although it is believed that the property is older, a fact that inspired its name and its concept. Travelers who visited this area came to stay in this place. You can still see one of the original columns where the horses were tied so that they drank from the water well that is also preserved and that connects with a natural spring under several properties in the center of Valle de Bravo.
During the conditioning of the well, elements from the period of the Mexican revolution were found, such as bullets, coins and belongings of the time. Some archaeological pieces from older periods were also found on the ground, such as the carved stones with eagle wings in our garden. These facts led to the conditioning of the hotel being planned respecting almost 100% the structure and design of the construction.
The house shows elements of the original building such as doors, floors and adobe walls typical of the time. The place went from being an inn to a convent for the order of the Carmelite mothers at the end of the last century. During this period it was also known as the town's mill. From this stage we can find a curious tombstone on one of our balconies and many of the original stones of the mill are distributed on the floor of our garden and dining room. Later it was a property inhabited by different families. On different dates, collectors and plastic artists lived here, who used part of the house as their workshop/studio and source of inspiration. Among them is the English artist Valetta Swann, one of the great women of muralism in Mexico and Aurora López Díaz, a Mexican painter, a period during which the property was known as "La Casa de los Monos", from this stage you can still see a plaque at the entrance.
We can find some of Aurora's works in the hotel, such as her portrait located in the reception, as well as an invitation to one of her many exhibitions.
What was the era and/or the architectural style in which the property was built?
About 1800 year
Is the property surrounded by other historic buildings?
Yes, the mainsquare, church (catedral) etc.
