St. Mary's Cathedral, Chiclayo, Neoclassical cathedral in central Chiclayo, Peru
St. Mary's Cathedral features a symmetrical facade with two bell towers, three entrance arches, and Doric columns adorning its main structure.
The cathedral's construction began in 1869 as a reward from President Jose Balta to the city for supporting his rebellion against the government.
The cathedral houses four German-made bells named Ave Maria, Asumpta, Mater Dei, and Gratia Plena, representing the religious heritage of northern Peru.
The cathedral opens daily from 7:00 AM to 9:00 PM, with modified weekend hours from 6:30 AM to 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM.
The central frontispiece displays an image of Santa Maria de los Valles de Chiclayo, commemorating the Franciscan fathers who established the settlement.
