Fiesta Americana Hacienda Galindo
Address: Carretera a Amealco Km 5.5 San Juan del Río, Querétaro c.p. 76800
Fiesta Americana Hacienda Galindo

Historic Significance

Legend states that the 16th century Hacienda Galindo was a gift from Hernan Cortes to "la Malinche", Doña Marina, as thanks for being his advisor and interpreter during the conquest of Mexico.

In 1524 la Malinche and her husband, Juan Jaramillo, lived in the region of San Juan del Rio. Cortes suggested to Jaramillo that he build a ranch for his wife. Although she passed away shortly afterward, the family preserved the Mayorazgo de la Llave until 1582, when the property was divided marking the beginning of the Hacienda de Galindo. Although the Mayorazgo de la Llave was gradually reduced in size over the years, the Hacienda de Galindo grew to become the most important in the region during the 18th and 19th centuries. On the 6,107 hectares bulls, cattle and sheep were raised.

During the Revolution the Hacienda de Galindo suffered the distribution of its lands leaving only the construction which became a privately owned museum endowed with magnificent works of art. However, the history of de Galindo as a hacienda had come to an end.

Acquired by a hotel chain in 1971, the monumental task of restoration began to convert the property into a luxury hotel.  As of 1997 the Hacienda Galindo forms part of the Fiesta Americana hotel chain, which refurbished the installations. Today this is a remarkable destination to live and enjoy history.
