Atrial cross information


Atrial cross at the Church and Convent of San Nicolás de Tolentino

An atrial cross is a large cross placed in the capilla abierta, atrium, or large open space in front of Mexican church buildings. Most from recent centuries are in stone, with extensive ornamental carving in relief. They are a distinctive element of religious architecture in Mexico.

Originating during the Novohispanic era, these crosses reflect the fusion of pre-Columbian cultures and European Christianity.[1] These stone sculptures, particularly found in the Valley of Mexico, are an element of an architectural style known as Tequitqui.

They may be compared with high cross tradition of the British Isles, also begun in a newly-converted society.
