La Conquistadora, this nation’s oldest Madonna, arrived in Santa Fe in 1625 carried in the arms of Fray de Alonso de Benevides from Mexico City. From that moment on La Conquistadora has represented Santa Fe’s Spanish faith and legacy. The honoring of La Conqistadora, is central to the annual Santa Fe Fiesta, our nation’s oldest-continuous community celebration. In 1973 to the shock of the community, La Conquistadora was stolen as a result of a teenage-prank but quickly recovered.
Doña Tules (c. 1800–1852)
Tules, was an expert at the card game Monte. During the mid-1840s she operated a gaming hall that catered to Americans and Mexicans travelling along Santa Fe Trail, which ended at the Santa Fe plaza. Born Maria Gertrudes Barcelo, she was purported to be the mistress of Gov. Manuel Armijo, the last New Mexico governor under the rule of the Mexican government. As her business grew she amassed a small fortune and became accepted into circles of high society. When she died in 1852 she was buried underneath the Basilica Cathedral of St. Francis of Assisi along with the hierarchy of the Catholic clergy. During a time that few women had rights or visibility, the story of Doña Tules has caught the imagination of many and is one of the most written about woman in New Mexico history.
La Llorona, the wailing woman, is an important part of New Mexico cultural folklore. The legend may have originated in 1520 with the Spanish conquest of Mexico. One story claims that La Malinche was the Indian mistress of the conquistador Hernan Cortes. Through the betrayal to her native people she is banished from society and is destined to eternity to roam the riverbeds and streets of Santa Fe, northern New Mexico and other parts of the Southwest in search of her lost children, which is metaphoric of her lost culture.
