Also known as the Basílica Catedral San Miguel Arcángel de Piura, this cathedral located in the city's Plaza de Armas was built in 1588. It jealously guards the treasures of its nave: gilded altar, altarpiece of the Virgen de Fatima (carved in magnificent Nicaraguan cedar) which has adorned it for 350 years, a portrait of the libertador San Martín painted by Ignacio Merino and a Purísima Concepción of the Quito school. Partially destroyed after the earthquake of 1912, it was the Spanish sculptor Julian Aliaga who remade its altar.

Certainement le monument le plus intéressant de Piura. De beaux retables qui ont été préservés des différentes catastrophes dont a souffert Piura.
