Cuauhtemoc Mennonite Fields Tour

We'll pick you up from your hotel in Chihuahua at 9 am and depart for Cuauhtemoc, the third-largest city in the state.

Once we arrive there, we'll head to the outskirts of Cuauhtemoc to visit the vast fields nearby, which are a key part of the livelihood of the Mennonites. This community is of the Anabaptist Christian movement that preserves customs and traditions dating back to the 16th century, based on the doctrines of Protestant leader Menno Simons.

We'll explore day-to-day life for Mexican Mennonites and their society by visiting the Mennonite Museum, where we'll learn many facts about this community.
