On September 16, 1810, the Catholic priest Miguel Hidalgo y Costilla rang the bells of his church in Dolores, Guanajuato. A crowd of locals gathered around him on the front steps, and Hidalgo gave a passionate speech about the need for an independent Mexico. There is no scholarly agreement on what was exactly said by Hidalgo, but his speech, also known as the cry of Dolores (el Grito de Dolores). Hidalgo’s army fought against the Spanish soldiers in the fight for independence, but he was captured and executed on July 30, 1811. Mexico's independence was not declared until September 28, 1821.

Today, there are fiestas everywhere in Mexico to commemorate this symbolic beginning of the Mexican War of Independence against Spain. The end of the war finally came 11 long years later in 1821. In La Paz, celebrations to honor Mexico’s Independence Day will be held at the Governor’s Palace on Isabel la Católica between Bravo and Rosales.

It is important to note that due to Mexico’s Independence Day, celebrated on September 15th and 16th, banks, schools and most government offices will be closed on Monday, September 16th.
