The first was the Palacio Legislativo, with two murals, one done in relief. Shown is part of one of the murals, an in-your-face statement of the artist's view of the role of the Church in Mexico's difficult history. Note the cross in parallel with the sword, and the Conquistador's flag.
Later we visited the Palacio de Gobierno, built in the 1790's for a Spanish mine owner. Today it is a working government office building filled with murals.
