Salcajá
Salcajá is a municipality in Quetzaltenango department of Guatemala. Salcajá is best known for the Church of San Jacinto, founded in 1524, which was the first church built in Central America. It is also known as La Conquistadora("The Conqueror") presumably because of the time period and its religious influence on the indigenous population. After 432 years and several earthquakes, the building still is in relatively good condition.
Cantel, Guatemala
Cantel is a small municipality in the Quetzaltenango Department in Guatemala, east from the city of Quetzaltenango with an area of 22 km. The village of Cantel is situated at 2,370 m altitude. The population is 32,221 people. Cantel includes the small Maya archaeological site of Chojolom.
Chapel of San Jacinto
The Chapel of San Jacinto (Spanish: Capilla de San Jacinto) is a Roman Catholic chapel located in the town of Salcajá, Guatemala. It is said to have been founded by the Franciscans in 1524, the same year the Maya K'iche' kingdom was conquered by the Spanish conquistadores, and is claimed to be the first church built in Central America. Although there is no historical evidence to support that claim, the chapel can be considered a fine example of early Spanish colonial architecture.
