The Church and Hospital of Jesús Nazareno are supposedly located at the spot where Hernán Cortés and Moctezuma II met for the first time in 1519 which was then the beginning of the causeway leading to Iztapalapa. Cortés ordered the hospital built to tend to soldiers wounded fighting with the Aztecs.According to the last will of Cortés however the hospital seems to have been meant primarily for the Indians.[citation needed]The Jesús Hospital is one of the oldest buildings in Mexico City.
