Kūkulu ʻia ma nā pali o nā puʻu, pono e hoʻopili i ke ʻano kūlanakauhale o kēia kūlanakauhale i nā hiʻohiʻona topographic o ka ʻāina, ʻoiai e hoʻāʻo nei e mahalo i kahi ʻano reticular e like me ka chessboard.
I ka holo lōʻihi, ua ʻae kēia hiʻohiʻona e ulu i kahi ana a me ke kuʻikahi, i mālama ʻia i loko o nā kenekulia i kāna ʻano kumu. Ua kū aʻe kona kumu mai ka pono e pale a pale i nā huakaʻi i hele ma waena o Zacatecas a me ke kapena o ke aupuni o ia manawa ʻo New Spain, e lawe ana i nā minelala nui a i hoʻopuni ʻia e nā ʻōiwi ʻōiwi o ka lāhui Chichimeca. Ma kahi o ka makahiki 1542, Fray Juan de Ua hoʻokumu ʻo San Miguel ma kahi kokoke i ke kūlanakauhale i kēia manawa kahi kūlanakauhale me ka inoa ʻo Itzcuinapan, e hoʻolaʻa ana i ka Archangel San Miguel ma ke ʻano he patron. Ua loaʻa i kēlā lāhui kama'āina nā pilikia nui me ka lako o ka wai, a he mea hoʻohui i ka hoʻomau a me ka hōʻeha o nā ʻōiwi Chichimecas o nā wahi e pili ana. No kēia kumu, hoʻoneʻe ka poʻe noho o ka Villa de San Miguel i ka noho ʻana i kekahi mau kilomita i ka ʻākau hikina; ʻO ia kahi ma 1555, e like me ke noi a ka viceroy Don Luis de Velasco, e hoʻokumu ʻia ka Villa de San Miguel el Grande e Don Ángel de Villafañe. Ua koi pū aku ka ʻelele i nā kamaʻāina Sepania e noho ma laila, kahi e hāʻawi ʻia ai ka ʻāina a me nā holoholona, ʻoiai e kala ʻia ka poʻe ʻōiwi e noho ana ma laila a e alakaʻi ʻia e ko lākou mau aliʻi ponoʻī e hōʻalo i nā kipi o ka wā e hiki mai ana.
Ma Malaki 8, 1826, ua hoʻolilo ka Mokuʻāina Mokuʻāina iā ia i kūlanakauhale a hoʻololi i kona inoa, a laila e lilo ʻo San Miguel de Allende, no ka hoʻohanohano ʻana i ka mea kipi kaulana i hānau ʻia ma 1779.
I loko o kēia kiʻi kolone maikaʻi, e noho ana kekahi mau hale aliʻi kupaianaha o ka manawa. Aia ma waena o nā mea nui loa ka Hale Aliʻi Kūlanakauhale, ma mua ke hale kauhale i kūkulu ʻia i ka makahiki 1736. ʻO ka hale kahi i hānau ʻia ai ʻo Ignacio Allende, kahi laʻana o ke kuhikuhipuʻuone o ke kūlanakauhale, ʻo ia hoʻi ma kona alo, a ʻo ia ka Museum Museum. ʻO ka Casa del Mayorazgo de la Canal, me kahi alo neoclassical nani, i hoʻopau ʻia i ka hopena o ke kenekulia 18 e José Mariano de la Canal y Hervas, alderman, dean a me ka hae aliʻi. ʻO ka hale manor kahiko o Don Manuel T. de la Canal, kahi kūkulu o 1735 i hana hou ʻia e like me kahi papahana e ka mea kālaiʻike Sepania kaulana ʻo Don Manuel Tolsá i ka makahiki 1809; ʻO ka hale i kēia manawa ka hale ʻo Allende Institute a hōʻike ia i ka laulā o nā pā hale o loko, kahi hale pule nani a me kāna mau pio kūpanaha. ʻO ka hale o ka Inquisitant, kahi i noho ai ke komisina o ka keʻena Hemolele a mai nā makahiki 1780. ʻO ka hale o ka Marqués de Jaral de Berrio, i kūkulu ʻia ma ka hopena o ke kenekulia 18, a me nā helu o Loja me kāna pā nani.
E pili ana i nā hale hoʻomana haipule, ke kaena pū nei ke kūlanakauhale i nā waiwai kuhikuhipuʻuone i waiwai nui loa ʻia, e like me ka hale pule a me ka hale pule o Santo Domingo, kahi hale sober mai ka makahiki 1737. ʻO ka hale pule ʻo Leal de la Concepción, ʻo ia ka Cultural Center, He hale kupaianaha ia no ka lānai nui; Kūkulu ʻia ia i ke kenekulia 18 e ka mea hoʻolālā ʻo Francisco Martínez Gudlño.
ʻO ka hale pule o ka Santa Cruz del Chorro, kekahi o nā mea kahiko; ka luakini o ka Papa ʻEkolu, mai ka mua o ka ʻumikūmāhiku kenekulia. ʻO ka ensemble nani o ka luakini a me oratory o San Felipe Neri, mai ka hoʻomaka o ke kenekulia 18; he exuberant baroque façade ka hale pule i hana ʻia i ka quarry a poni a hoʻonani ʻia me ka mana ʻōiwi ikaika. He ʻano like ʻole kā kā loko i waena o nā mea hoʻonani, nā kiʻi kālai ʻia a me nā kiʻi pena i mahalo ʻia, me ka hoʻohui ʻia o ka hale pule nani o ka Santa Casa de Loreto a me kāna Camarín de la Virgen, nā mea hoʻonani nani a no ka hoʻolaʻa ʻana o ka Marquis Manu. ʻO Tomás de la Canal. Ma kahi kokoke i ka oratory ka luakini o Our Lady of Health, i kūkulu ʻia i ke kenekulia 18 me kona alo recessed lei aliʻi ʻia e kahi pū nui.
Eia kekahi ma waena o nā mea nani loa o ke kūlanakauhale, ka luakini ʻo Kapalakiko, mai ke kenekulia 18, me kona alo nani Churrigueresque, a ʻo ka parish kaulana kokoke i kahi hōʻailona o San Miguel de Allende; ʻOiai ʻo kāna neo-gothic kaila hana hou hou aku, kūkulu ʻia ia ma ke ʻano o ka luakini 17 kenekulia kahiko, e mahalo piha ana i kona kūloko a me kāna hoʻolālā kumu.
ʻO kahi kokoke loa i ke kūlanakauhale kahi laʻa o Atotonilco, kahi kenekulia 13 i kūkulu ʻia o nā ʻāpana sober e like me ka hale paʻa a ma loko e mālama ʻia nā kiʻi waiwai mai ke kenekulia like.
