I kou huakaʻi ʻana i ka mokuʻāina o Hidalgo, e lawe i ka manawa kūpono e kipa aku ai i kēia kaona, i ka leʻaleʻa kolone, kahi e hiki ai iā ʻoe ke mahalo i ka hoʻolālā o kāna hale pule kahiko, a e ʻoluʻolu hoʻi i nā wahi e pili ana iā ia: ʻo ka lagoon Atezca a me nā kuahiwi.
Aia ia ma kahi o 92 km. o Pachuca. ʻO Molanco ka inoa kumu, "kahi o ke akua Mola"; ua luku ʻia ka luakini a me ke ʻano o ke akua e Fray Antonio de Roa me ke kōkua o nā haipule ʻē aʻe. ʻO ia ke kahua kahiko loa no ka mea pili ia 1538. ʻO ka hale pule mua i hoʻolaʻa ʻia ʻo ia ʻo San Miguel a me nā lā o ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ka hale konikona ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo ia nā makahiki 1540-1550. He aliʻi nui ʻo Santa María Molango a lawelawe ʻia he 19 mau kūlanakauhale a he 38 mau kipa ʻana. ʻAʻole ia a hiki i ka makahiki 1751, ka manawa i hoʻokaʻawale ʻia.
Kūkulu ʻia ka paʻakikī ma luna o ka pae kiʻekiʻe. Aia nā loli i kāna attic, hoʻopuni ʻia e kahi pā i hoʻopili ʻia a ʻae ʻia i ke komo ʻana ma o nā puka ʻelua, ʻo ka mea ma ka ʻaoʻao komohana he nani loa, hui ʻia me kahi alapiʻi e hāmama ana e like me ka pā ʻAʻohe o mākou ʻikepili ma ka hale pule hāmama. Ua nalowale ke keʻa atrial, a me nā poses o ka hale pule. Hoʻokaʻawale ka belfry mai ka hale, kahi hopena hoʻonā hale hou.
ʻO ke kāhiko o ka façade ma kahi o ka wehe. Ua hoʻonani ʻia ka piʻo me nā lau o ʻElisabethan, nā pua a me nā momi. ʻO ka intrados (ʻo ia ka ʻaoʻao o loko o kahi arch a vault a i ʻole ke alo o ka ʻāpana i hana ʻia i ʻōlelo ʻia i loko) o ka pio a me nā helehelena o loko o nā jamb i loaʻa nā ʻānela o nā ʻānela; He hana pālahalaha loa ia e hōʻike ana i ka hoʻohana o ka hana ʻōiwi.
Kahi kope pōkole e hoʻomanaʻo ai e pono ka ʻōnaehana decoatequitl e hana i ka hoʻonohonoho o ka hana, ʻo ia hoʻi, nā luina o nā limahana i hoʻokaʻawale i nā hana, he koina kā lākou komo ʻana. Ma luna aʻe o ka puka aia he puka rose e ʻae ai i nā kukui o ka hui hīmeni. Hōʻike kēia uhi i nā mana āpau i loaʻa mai ʻEulopa: aloha aloha, Gothic, Renaissance, a me ka peʻa ʻōiwi kikoʻī, hāʻawi i kā mākou hana lima i kāna pūlima ponoʻī. Maʻalahi ka loko e like me ka nalo ʻana o kāna mau kuahu. ʻO ka luna nui mai kahi e hiki ai i ka haipule ke lohe i ka lehulehu me ka ʻole e iho i lalo i ka hale pule ua mālama ʻia a ua kamaʻilio pololei ʻia me ka luna luna kiʻekiʻe. ʻO ka hale pule i kēia hihia ua pani ʻia me ka kaupaku lāʻau, kahi hana o kēia manawa kahi hana (1974). Hoʻonui maikaʻi loa ʻia ke keʻena o ka hale ʻaha, akā ma o nā kolamu i koe, hōʻike mau ia i ka hanohano a me ke kuoo.
ʻO ka hoʻohuli ʻana o nā hui ma ka Sierra Alta kahi lohi a me ka hana ikaika; he nui nā haipule, ua poina nā inoa, hāʻawi i kā lākou hua one i kēlā ʻoihana kolone. Ua hoʻomaʻamaʻa lohi ka poʻe ʻōiwi i ka nānā ʻana i nā mōneka ʻAukake e kū a hina i lalo mai nā mauna a hiki i ka hohonu o nā awāwa a me nā ana. ʻO ka mālama, ke aloha, ka hoʻohaʻahaʻa, a me ka paternalism o kekahi haipule i lei aliʻi ʻia e ka lanakila ʻana i nā puʻuwai a me nā ʻuhane o ka poʻe kūpaʻa. ʻOiai i kēia manawa, i ka hopena o ke kenekulia iwakālua, ilihune, hoʻi i hope, ka nele o nā ʻāina maikaʻi a me nā alanui e ʻae ai i kēia mau hui e ola me ka hanohano. Ma ʻaneʻi lohe mau mākou i ka kamaʻilio ʻana a Otomí, holoholo mākou ma nā alanui a me nā mākeke e manaʻo nei he nui nā Roas a me nā Sevilla e pono ai, me ka ʻuhane like o ka lawelawe, huli i ko lākou mau maka a hana e kōkua iā lākou. Aia ka mea hana ma laila, ke kali nei e kipa ʻia, A ʻoi aku i nā mea e maopopo ai, he kumu ko kēlā me kēia pōhaku. Ma ka Sierra Alta me he mea lā ua kū ka manawa, ua hala lohi ia e ʻike ai ka huakaʻi hele i loko o kā mākou wā i hala.
