Heritage of Mora
During the onset of 1847, the people of Mora courageously opposed the American military forces in New Mexico. This era of defiance resulted in severe skirmishes, the destruction of local dwellings, and enduring struggles that left a profound mark on the community for many decades.
Yet, the story of Mora is more than a chronicle of loss. It stands as a powerful symbol of endurance, collective restoration, and the rich cultural legacy that binds the residents of Mora County together in the present day.
La Batalla de Mora is dedicated to safeguarding these essential histories through the creation of artistic heritage cards, learning tools, and a forthcoming feature documentary.
