Las Cruces Real Estate | Historical Fact - Cinco de Mayo

Cinco de Mayo is a traditional Mexican holiday that is largely celebrated here in Las Cruces due to the Mexican and Hispanic populations. During Cinco de Mayo, there are often events with music, vendors and food to celebrate Mexican pride. But the history of this holiday is fascinating because it was originally in celebration of a victory by Mexico at the Battle of Puebla during the Franco-Mexican war. The holiday Cinco de Mayo translates to May 5th, which was the day in 1862, that the Mexican army defeated France. And to this day, this holiday is celebrated by people all over the US and in Mexico.
