Cathedral of Tacuarembó, Romanesque Revival cathedral in Metrocentro, Tacuarembó, Uruguay

The Cathedral of San Fructuoso displays rounded arches and substantial stonework characteristics, representing traditional ecclesiastical architecture in northern Uruguay.

The cathedral construction began in 1892, replacing a basic thatched-roof ranch that had stood at this location since August 1834.

The structure functions as the primary seat of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Tacuarembó, established in 1960 to serve the regional Catholic population.

Visitors can access the cathedral daily to observe its architectural features, participate in religious services, or examine the clock tower installed in 1930.

This religious monument combines elements of Romanesque Revival design with regional architectural adaptations specific to northern Uruguay's building traditions.
