This massive mansion was built between 1909 and 1911, though its owner, General Francisco Cantón Rosado (1833–1917), lived here for only six years before his death. The Palacio’s splendor and pretension make it a fitting symbol of the grand aspirations of ²Ñé°ù¾±»å²¹â€™s elite during the last years of the Porfiriato – the period from 1876 to 1911 when Porfirio DÃaz held despotic sway over Mexico.
It hosts temporary exhibitions and the entry fee may depend on what's on.
