Description
San Geronimo de Taos is located within Taos Pueblo which is situated in the Taos Valley at the foot of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, an hour and half northwest of Santa Fe. The multi-storied adobe pueblo, which rises on both sides of Rio Pueblo de Taos, seems to embody the tenacity of the Puebloan people in successfully adapting to the centuries of change in their natural and cultural landscape. Continuously occupied for over 1000 years Taos Pueblo is the only living Native American pueblo that is both a UNESCO World Heritage Site and a National Historic Landmark.
Construction on the original San Geronimo de Taos church was started in 1647 and was destroyed three times. Twice by Puebloans and lastly by the American forces in 1846. The new church was built in 1850. Most of the Taos people identify as Catholic but still recognize strong ties to their ancient cultural traditions.
