Entirely built (and rebuilt after earthquakes, the last of which, in June 2001, brought down one of its two bell towers) in sillar, a white volcanic stone, it displays its seventy columns, its three doors and its two lateral arches on a whole section of the plaza de Armas: the "facade" that one discovers is in fact only one of its sides. Inside, there are some interesting paintings and sculptures, a monumental altar made of Carrara marble, large organs made in Belgium and a pulpit carved in Lille by a certain Rigot.

Bel édifice, richement décoré, un grand autel et de nombreuses petites chapelles sur les côtés, y aller lors de messes, le son est grandiose. Il faut être décemment couvert pour la visiter, (employés à l'entrée pour filtrer).

Jolie cathédrale ; pensez à être couverts pour la visiter (shorts et petits débardeurs à proscrire)
