Cathedral of St. Christopher, Catholic cathedral in San Cristóbal, Venezuela.

The Cathedral of Saint Christopher displays neo-colonial and baroque architectural elements with large stained glass windows depicting historical events of the region.

Pope Pius XI established the Cathedral as the seat of the Diocese of San Cristóbal on October 12, 1922, through the Apostolic constitution Ad Munus.

The Cathedral maintains its position as the primary Catholic worship center in San Cristóbal, hosting regular services and religious ceremonies for the local community.

Located at 5 with Race 3 next to Juan Maldonado Square, the Cathedral stands as a central landmark in the Táchira State's capital city.

The interior features distinctive stained glass artwork commemorating Simón Bolívar's visit to San Cristóbal in 1813 during the independence campaign.
