All Saints Cathedral, Santa Fe, Catholic cathedral in Santa Fe, Argentina.
All Saints Cathedral is a three-nave church that serves as the mother church of the Archdiocese and sits on Brigadier Estanislao Lopez Street in the city center. The building occupies a prominent position in the historic downtown area and is surrounded by colonial-era structures.
Construction started in 1573 in Cayasta, an earlier settlement, and the entire structure was moved to its present location in 1651 when Santa Fe relocated. This relocation made the church the centerpiece of the new city's layout.
The cathedral serves as the spiritual center where the local Catholic community gathers for worship and religious celebrations. It shapes the city's character and offers visitors a chance to experience the religious life that has defined the region for centuries.
The church is open during services and located in the city center where it is easily accessible on foot. Visitors should dress respectfully and remember that it remains an active place of worship.
The building was recognized as a National Historical Monument by the Argentine government in 1942, officially protecting it as a treasure of national heritage. This designation highlights its importance not only to religion but also to Argentina's broader national story.
