Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral, Ciudad Obregón

Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral, Ciudad Obregón, Catholic cathedral in Ciudad Obregón, Mexico.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus Cathedral is a modern Catholic church in Ciudad Obregón, Sonora, built from 1977 to 1979. Its roof takes the form of a truncated prism, topped by a large cross. Inside stands a retablo 12 metres long and 7 metres high, weighing 2.5 tonnes and made of 30 pieces of marble images with gold and bronze leaf decoration.

Construction of the cathedral began in 1977 under Miguel González Ibarra, bishop of the Diocese of Ciudad Obregón, to replace the previous cathedral. Works concluded in 1979, when the finished building was consecrated and dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, making it one of Mexico's most recent cathedrals.

The interior holds a retablo 12 metres long and 7 metres high, weighing 2.5 tonnes and made of 30 pieces of images carved in marble with gold-leaf and bronze decorations. The cathedral is dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, the devotion that gives the church its name.

The cathedral is located near Alvaro Obregon Square and is easy to reach for both religious services and architectural visits. Visitors should note that prayer times may include religious observances, so checking visiting hours in advance is helpful.

The roof is a truncated prism, not a pyramid: its flat top carries a large cross. Inside, the altarpiece measures 12 m wide by 7 m high, weighs 2.5 tonnes and is made of 30 marble image pieces with gold and bronze leaf.
