San Miguel de Allende - Church of El Oratorio de San Felipe Neri

The church of El Oratorio de San Felipe Neri, further north on the other side of Calle Mesones, was founded in 1712; it replaced the former "Mulato" church of Ecce Homo. Indian features are clearly evident on the pink stone façade, particularly on the five statues of saints standing in niches. On the altar in the right transept can be seen a painting of the Virgin of Guadalupe by Miguel Cabrera. The 33 pictures detailing the life of St Felipe Neri are also attributed to Miguel Cabrera.
