Antigua's first cathedral, built in 1545 and elevated to the status of Metropolitan Cathedral, boasts a beautiful Baroque façade.
The construction of the first cathedral in Antigua began in 1545. Destroyed by an earthquake, it was rebuilt in 1669 and inaugurated 11 years later. Considered the most beautiful architectural work of the time, it was elevated to the rank of Metropolitan Cathedral... Before being ravaged by the earthquake of 1773, which turned its upper floor into ruins. If the latter are open to visit, the interior of the cathedral does not necessarily deserve the detour. Its beautiful baroque façade is.

quelle blancheur
Vous ne pouvez la manquer cette cathédrale si remarquable de blancheur et son style baroque espagnol et colonial. Située sur le pourtour du parque central poumon de la ville, une belle animation règne sur son parvis, souvent des musiciens ou de grands mariages le samedi.
