Notes
  • Significance: The Casa Ronquillo, in its original state, constituted an important example of a large "estancia." Its architecture is typical of the Mexican border region, consisting of adobe walls without foundations, dirt floors, a (terrado) roof made of dirt and supported by round beams (vigas). The original plan included an interior courtyard (patio) with a surrounding open porch (portal), and dependent farm buildings, all enclosed by an adobe wall. The interior finishings are not well known except for the murals and ceiling cloths which seem to have been of particular quality.
