The capilla posa is the architectural solution used in the monastery-ensembles of New Spain in the 16th century consisting of four vaulted quadrangular buildings located at the ends of the atrium outside them. Like the capilla abierta, religious figures were posed in it, so the name of it, is a unique solution and a contribution of the New Spain to universal art given its originality and the plastic and stylistic resources used in its ornamentation, with pre-Columbian and Baroque art elements. As paradigmatic examples are those of Huejotzingo and Calpan in Puebla, Mexico, which have an ornamental program made with tequitqui technique and based on medieval and Renaissance aesthetic canons, as a pure expression of syncretism.

  • The capilla posa is the architectural solution used in the monastery-ensembles of New Spain in the 16th century consisting of four vaulted quadrangular buildings located at the ends of the atrium outside them. Like the capilla abierta, religious figures were posed in it, so the name of it, is a unique solution and a contribution of the New Spain to universal art given its originality and the plastic and stylistic resources used in its ornamentation, with pre-Columbian and Baroque art elements. As paradigmatic examples are those of Huejotzingo and Calpan in Puebla, Mexico, which have an ornamental program made with tequitqui technique and based on medieval and Renaissance aesthetic canons, as a pure expression of syncretism. The in Huejotzingo dedicated its chapels with advocacy to John the Baptist, James the Great, Our Lady of the Assumption and Saints Peter and Paul; they have a square base of 5.40 m on each side. The accesses to the plant are opened with reduced arches of linked mouldings, related to the decoration of the doorway del Convent and the representative cord of Francis of Assisi. There are several theories about its function. It has been proposed that, following the processional path, the capillas posas served to "pose" or rest the Blessed Sacrament when it was taken out in procession through the atrium. Researcher Carlos Chanfón has suggested a didactic function to house groups of students who were catechized, since one function of the atrium in these sets was the teaching not only of religion but of the norms and offices of Western life. It has also been proposed its use and relationship with the four neighborhoods that used to settle in the towns and cities following the typical Spanish pattern and of which each one was in charge in its cleaning and maintenance. According to , they were able to serve as burial mounds of indigenous rulers. Margarita Martínez del Sobral has proposed its use as hermitages for the temporary isolation of the friars. Its origin has also been proposed in various ways. Carlos Chanfón has proposed his inspiration in the early churches and hermitages. According to the archaeological analysis of Mario Córdova Tello, its construction was not always part of the original design, as evidenced in the engravings of the capilla posa in the former Franciscan , whose construction corresponds to the third stage (1545–1580) with engravings mentioning the year 1550. * Perspective of the capilla posa in Huejotzingo.

Como ejemplos paradigmáticos se conservan las de Huejotzingo y Calpan en Puebla, México, que cuentan con un programa ornamental hecho con técnica tequitqui y basada en cánones estéticos medievales y renacentistas, como una expresión pura de transculturación y sincretismo.​ El antiguo convento de san Miguel en Huejotzingo dedicó sus capillas con advocación a san Juan Bautista, Santiago el Mayor, Nuestra Señora de la Asunción y San Pedro y San Pablo; presentan una base en forma cuadrada de 5,40 m por lado. Los accesos a la planta se abren con arcos rebajados de molduras eslabonadas, relacionadas con la decoración de la portería del convento y el cordón representativo de san Francisco de Asís Existen varias teorías acerca de su función. Se ha propuesto que, siguiendo el , las capillas posas servían para “posar” o descansar el Santísimo Sacramento cuando este era sacado en procesión por el atrio. El investigador ha sugerido una función didáctica para alojar grupos de educandos que eran catequizados, ya que una función del atrio en estos conjuntos era la enseñanza no solo de la religión sino de las normas y oficios de la vida occidental. También se ha propuesto su uso y relación con los cuatro barrios que se acostumbraba asentar en los pueblos y ciudades siguiendo la traza española típica y del que cada uno de ellos estaba encargado en su limpieza y manutención. Según Antonio Rubial pudieron servir como túmulos de gobernantes indígenas. Margarita Martínez del Sobral ha propuesto su uso como ermitas para el aislamiento temporal de los frailes. Su origen igualmente se ha propuesto de formas diversas. Carlos Chanfón ha propuesto su inspiración en los templos y ermitas primitivos. Según los análisis arqueológicos de , su construcción no siempre formaba parte del diseño original, como se evidencia en los grabados de la capilla posa en el ex convento Franciscano de Huejotzingo, cuya construcción corresponde a la tercera etapa (1545-1580) con grabados mencionando el año 1550.​ (es)
