It was declared World Heritage Site, 1987.

The city of Tlatelolco was founded around 1337, 13 years after the founding of Mexico Tenochtitlán, by part of the same Mexica group.
The parallel history of Tlatelolco and Tenochtitlán is a clear example of the process that Mesoamerican territory experienced before the Spanish conquest, characterized by struggles for political power between lineages and territorial expansion.However, by maintaining a common origin and a tutelary God (Huitzilopochtli), Tenochcas and Tlatelolcas shared some festivals, rituals and the big open market where people from as far as the Yucatán peninsula would come so sell or exchange goods as caco.
