Built in 1542, the cathedral has three naves, the central one with a wooden ceiling evoking the deck of an ancient galley.

Founded in 1542, this massive building that stands at the eastern end of the Parque Central is one of the oldest structures in the region. Nevertheless, the cathedral has been rebuilt several times: in 1741, in 1799 and in 1965. Once inside the door, you will see a huge bronze bell. The interior is painted white, yellow and blue and consists of three naves. In the central nave, a wooden ceiling is remarkable, which evokes the deck of an ancient galley.

Il est vrai qu'il n'y a pas beaucoup de chose à voir ou visiter à Coban, ville de passage et noeud routier pour partie dans de nombreuses directions. Mais cette cathédrale trônant en plus centre ville sera vous ravir, de par son style colonial espagnol et sa blancheur vous appelant à y pénétrer, belle cloche au sol près de l'entrée et de belles petites chapelles et une grande nef avec un bel autel.
