St. Augustine Cathedral, Talca, Roman Catholic cathedral in Plaza de Armas, Talca, Chile.
The cathedral exhibits modern architectural elements with reinforced concrete arches and masonry walls forming the main structural components of the building.
The cathedral, designed by architect Ramón Venegas, replaced the former Mother Church after the 1928 earthquake and was consecrated on September 30, 1954.
The cathedral functions as the Episcopal seat of the Diocese of Talca and hosts numerous liturgical ceremonies throughout the religious calendar.
Located in the central square of Talca, the cathedral underwent extensive restoration in 2012 to reinforce its structure following earthquake damage.
A carillon, donated by Gabriel Pando in 1955, adds musical dimension to this religious monument of central Chile.
