Huatusco de Chicuellar (commonly known as Huatusco), is a city and municipality in the Mexican state of Veracruz, on the Xalapa–Mexico City railroad that was founded by Italian immigrants. It is bordered by Calcahualco, the state of Puebla, Ixhuatlán del Café and Federal Highway 180.
The oldest church in Huatusco is dedicated to San Antonio de Padua with a height of approximately 20 meters. A nearby hill, called "Cerro de Guadalupe" has a church on top of it, where every year on December 11 and 12 Catholic people hold religious festivities. In these days, the priest celebrates with a mass, and after that, people stay around the hill to have a picnic.
