La Antigua, Veracruz

Posted in

My dad and son officiating mass (not really) in a chapel in La Antigua, Veracruz, constructed in 1523, purportedly the oldest Catholic chapel in all of the Americas.

We then visited Hernan Cortez’s old (really old) house, and saw where he docked his ships. La Antigua is right along a large river. Cortez brought his boats inland from the ocean…back in the day.
