Morisco Kiosk

It is situated in the Alameda Park in the center of the Colonia neighborhood, at the intersection of Dr. Atl and Salvador Miron Streets, near Metro Buenavista.

The kiosk is built in the neo-Mudejar architectural style that was prevailing in Spain in the 19th century.

[1][2] The Morisco Kiosk was built by José Ramón Ibarrola as the Mexico Pavilion at the 1884 World’s Fair in New Orleans.

During the Centennial of the Mexican War of Independence it was decided to be moved to make way for the Benito Juárez Monument.

The Kiosk made of wrought iron with a glass cupola dome at top.
