This section focuses on the period when Miguel Hidalgo arrived in the town of Dolores at the age of 50. There, he planted vineyards, cultivated mulberry trees for silk production, and opened workshops for pottery, tanning, leatherworking, carpentry, blacksmithing, and textiles. It is said that during the evenings, he would gather with workers to read and discuss texts on various industries. It was during this time that he made his historic call to the people to rise up for independence. An illustrated timeline also traces Hidalgo’s involvement in the insurgency, his death, and the continued struggle carried on by military units such as the Battalion of Death, led by José María Cos.
