Hidalgo del Parral, is a city and seat of the municipality of Hidalgo del Parral in the Mexican state of Chihuahua. It is located in the southern part of the state, 220 km from the state capital, the city of Chihuahua, Chih. The city’s population was 101,147 at the 2005 census, and the municipality’s population was 103,519. The municipality includes numerous very small outlying communities in addition to the city. The city was founded as San José del Parral.The city is one of the most European-fashioned in all Mexico, because of the historic presence of Spaniards and French.
Parral was once a bustling center for silver mining. As early as 1567, the silver mines at Santa Barbara were established in the territory of the Conchos Indians. However, in 1631, a vast new silver strike was made in what is now southern Chihuahua. Later, in 1640, it was declared “Capital of the World” by monarch, Philip IV of Spain, at the very height of the Spanish Empire, that included territories in Eastern Asia, Italy, and the Low Countries[citation needed].
