In 1872, this temple with a flat nave was built, originally intended for the veneration of the Holy Child of Atocha, a devotion of foreign families settled in Zacapoaxtla. After the battle of 1886, a request was made to place the Image of Saint Gertrude, patron saint of some European nations, on the Altar, which is why these parishioners joined together to finish this Chapel.
