Santa Clara del Cobre (Spanish:[ˈsantaˈklaɾaðelˈkoβɾe]ⓘ) is a Magical town (Pueblo Mágico) and municipality located in the center of the state of Michoacán, Mexico, 18 km from Pátzcuaro[1] and 79 km from the state capital of Morelia.[2] While the official name of the municipality is Salvador Escalante,[2] and the town is often marked as "Villa Escalante" or "Salvador Escalante" on maps, both entities are interchangeably called Santa Clara del Cobre.[3][4] The town is part of the Pátzcuaro region of Michoacán, and ethnically dominated by the Purépecha people.[5] These people have been working with copper since the pre-Hispanic era, and led to this town's dominance in copper crafts over the colonial period (1519–1821) until well into the 19th century. Economic reverses led to the industry's near-demise here until efforts in the 1940s and 1970s managed to bring the town's work back into prominence.[3]
Santa Clara del Cobre was named a "Pueblo Mágico" in 2010.[6]
