Cathedral of the Incarnation, Encarnación, Catholic cathedral in Encarnación, Paraguay
The Cathedral of the Incarnation displays neo-Gothic and neo-Romanesque architectural elements with large stained glass windows illuminating the central nave.
The present cathedral structure, inaugurated in 1938, replaced previous churches dating back to 1718 when the first church stood at Plaza de Armas.
The cathedral serves as the mother church of the Diocese of Encarnación and hosts religious ceremonies that unite the local Catholic community throughout the year.
