Templo de la Tercera OrdenEl templo de la Tercera Orden Franciscana data del año 1755, es la segunda edificación religiosa más antigua después de la Parroquia de Nuestra Señora de
los Dolores. Construido en dos estilos arquitectónicos, barroco sobrio en su exterior y neoclásico en su interior.A la captura del cura de Dolores, el 22 de septiembre de 1810, la primera noticia de la Revolución de Independencia iniciada en Dolores la recibió Félix María Calleja en San Luis Potosi, y procedió activamente a tomar medidas urgentes. Sin esperar órdenes del rey, puso en pie de guerra un Ejército y le ofreció al virrey Francisco Javier Venegas reunirse con Manuel Flon, Conde de la Cadena, quien también armaba sus huestes en Querétaro para ir a la caza del cura insurgente. El 28 de octubre de 1810, las calles y vecinos del Pueblo de Dolores viven un inusitado espectáculo de guerra: Calleja arriba con tres mil hombres de caballería, seiscientos infantes y cuatro cañones. Manuel Flon con algo más o menos similar. Fusionan sus fuerzas a las que se les dio el nombre de Ejército de Operaciones sobre los insurgentes, con un total de siete mil hombres y ocho cañones, y toma Calleja el mando en Jefe, que le correspondía por su
graduación, quedando el Conde de la Cadena como segundo. Se entregaron al pillaje



y saqueo en la casa de Hidalgo e hicieron lo mismo con todas las casas, diezman también a los habitantes de la población. En vísperas de abandonar la población, Félix María Calleja pasa al interior templo y deposita su bastón de mando a los pies de la Virgen de la Purísima Concepción, prometiéndole a la santa imagen regresar por su prenda luego de capturar al Cura de Dolores. Posteriormente Calleja fue el 60o Virrey de la Nueva España, gobernando de 1814 al 20 de septiembre de 1816. La festividad de la Virgen de la Purísima e Inmaculada Concepción se realiza el 8 de diciembre. El dogma de la Inmaculada Concepción de María fue promulgado por el Papa Pio IX en 1854, sin embargo desde el siglo IX se había profesado este culto en Europa. En 1263 fue adoptado por todos los
franciscanos quienes se convirtieron en sus más ardientes defensores. La tercera orden franciscana, los seglares, celebran a San Francisco de Asís en su día universal el 4 de octubre.

English:Church of the Tercera OrdenThe Franciscan Third Order Church is from 1755, it is the second oldest religious building after the Parish of Nuestra Señora de los Dolores (Our Lady of Sorrows). Its construction styles are on the exterior



a sober baroque and neoclassical on its inside. When the Dolores' priest was captured, on September 22nd, 1810 the first notice of the Independent Revolution that started in Dolores was received by Félix Maria Calleja in San Luis Potosí who then proceeded to take urgent measures. Without waiting for the king's orders he started an army and offered the viceroy Francise Javier Venegas to meet with Manuel Flon, Count of Cadena who was also organizing an army in Querétaro to hunt the insurgent priest. On October 28th, 1810, the streets and neighbors of Dolores are unusual spectators of a war. Calleja is uphill with a cavalry of three thousand men, an infantry of six hundred and three cannons. Manuel Flon puts together a more or less army. They join forces, naming the whole: Ejército de Operaciones sobre los Insurgentes (Operational Army over the Insurgents) with seven thousand men and eight cannons. Calleja becomes commander in chief, which he was entitled to, and secondly the Count of Cadena. They rampaged and looted Hidalgo's house, so they did with the rest of the houses and the inhabitants of the town. One night before leaving the town, Félix María Calleja goes into the church and offers the Virgin of the Purísima Concepcion Virgin of the Holy Conception) his baton, promising her to come back for it after capturing the Priest of Dolores. Afterwards



Calleja was named the 60th Viceroy of the New Spain, ruling from 1814 to September 20th, 1816. The festivity of the Virgin of the Purísima e Inmaculada Concepción takes place on December 8th. The Inmaculate Conception of Virgin Mary's dogma was published by Pope Pius IX in 1854, nevertheless, since the IX century this cult was worshiped in Europe. In 1253 it was adopted by all the Franciscan priests who became its maximum defenders. The Franciscan Third Order, the seculars, celebrate Saint Francis of Assisi on his day, October 4th.
