Outside Santa Fe - Montezuma, NM

Previous | Up | Next

Outside Las Vegas, New Mexico lies the town of Montezuma, where the United World College was built. The castle in the background actually started as a hotel back in the late 1800's. It burned down twice and rebuilt, and finally housed the Montezuma Baptist College in 1920's. In the 30's the Roman Catholic Church moved in to train Jesuit priests from Mexico. In the early 80's the castle began its life as the United World College.
