Ciudad Hidalgo, or simply Hidalgo, is a city and municipality in the far northeast of the state of Michoacán, Mexico. It is a city located in a rural, mountainous area. While most of the city consists of modern buildings, its principal monument is the 16th century church and former monastery of San José. Formerly, its name was Taximaroa, and it was the part of the P’urhépecha Empire closest to the Aztec Empire.
This prompted two unsuccessful Aztec invasions as well as the first Spanish incursion into P’urhépecha lands in 1522. For both the city and rural communities around it, forestry and furniture making are important parts of the economy, but deforestation is forcing the area to look into alternatives such as tourism to take advantage of its natural resources and cultural sites.
