When did the hacienda close?
The closure of haciendas varied by region and context, but many began to decline in the late 19th and early 20th centuries due to land reforms and changes in agricultural practices. In Mexico, for example, the agrarian reforms of the 1910s, particularly during the Mexican Revolution, significantly reduced the power and influence of haciendas. By the 1930s, many haciendas were dismantled or repurposed. Specific closure dates would depend on the individual hacienda and its location.
Why were haciendas built tall?
Haciendas are large land estates in Mexico, usually attributing to the wealth and power of the owner; each hacienda grew a certain crop depending on its location and yielded large amounts of crops. Shortly after Mexico's independence, the nation fell into economic disarray. However, from 1876 to 1911 Porfirio Díaz came to power as dictator and managed to return the economy back to a strong state with the use of foreign investments and capitalist techniques. During his rule, haciendas were given a face-lift, usually in a neoclassical style which reflected a new national pride. Therefore, haciendas were not necessarily categorized as tall structures, but many were large due to a new found Mexican national confidence that wanted to make the estates grand and ostentatious.
