Our Lady of Mount Carmel Cathedral, Villavicencio, Roman Catholic cathedral in Villavicencio, Colombia.

The cathedral displays neoclassical architecture with a prominent facade featuring two 27-meter towers and ornate columns that frame its main entrance.

Initially constructed between 1845 and 1848, the cathedral underwent reconstruction after a fire in 1890 and substantial renovation following a devastating earthquake in 1917.

The cathedral holds regular mass services and functions as the primary religious center for the Archdiocese of Villavicencio, established by Pope Paul VI in 1964.

Located in central Villavicencio, the cathedral opens daily for prayer, masses, and guided visits, with enhanced accessibility through multiple public transportation routes.

The interior structure expanded by two meters on each side during the 1944 renovation, which preserved only the original facade while completely rebuilding the rest.
