This temple, which combines baroque and neoclassical styles from Puebla - with the use of Talavera - is located in the heart of the Zócalo of Tepeaca. Its interest does not lie so much in its architecture as in being the parish where the miraculous image of the Holy Child Doctor is found, which attracts pilgrimages of thousands of people every year asking for or thanking for healing. A space has been set aside in the back of the temple, next to the image, to pray to the Holy Child Doctor.
