Located in Hidalgo del Parral, an important mining city in the state of Chihuahua Mexico, the Alvarado Palace was built by Mr. Alvarado as a tribute of love to his beloved wife: Virginia Griensen.

This literary work and pictures, take us back to the late 1800s and early 1900s, a period with great political, social, and economic relevance for Mexico.

This building, built during the world’s silver boom, bore witness to the arrival of electricity, railways installation, the nation’s economic development, as well as the birth of the Mexican Revolution.

Don Pedro Alvarado, an internationally recognized prominent miner, a great philanthropist, and an exceptional human being, had among his friends both government representatives and revolution insurgents.
