Whether you are a resident or a visitor to the Santa Fe area, the old mining communities of Los Cerrillos and Madrid, located along the Turquoise Trail south of Santa Fe, are certainly worth a visit. Los Cerrillos boasts a wonderful old mission style church and a funky old trading post, as well has many now uninhabited historic buildings. Madrid has the old mining museum, the Mine Shaft Tavern, and many renovated miner's homes and shops that now house art galleries.

The photographs in this photo tour were taken in mid March of 2007. They highlight the highlight several of the historic buildings that make up the old mining towns of Los Cerrillos and Madrid, New Mexico. Related links for Los Cerrillos and Madrid are listed near the bottom of this page.
