Ex Convento de Churubusco (Museo de las Intervenciones)
When the ammunition ran out here in 1847, General Anaya gave the US his famous line. This convent is where the war for half of Mexico's territory was lost, room by room.
A colonial convent that became the fort where Mexico made its stand against invading US troops in 1847 — now the museum of foreign interventions.
