Our Lady of Solitude Cathedral, Acapulco, Catholic cathedral in central Acapulco, Mexico.

The Our Lady of Solitude Cathedral stands in front of Álvarez Square in central Acapulco. Its architecture mixes Neocolonial, Moorish and Byzantine styles, the last two visible in the dome and towers. The interior is decorated with gold tiles and mosaics.

Worship has been held on this site since the parish was founded in 1555. A new building based on a 1904 design by Adamo Boari was still under construction when the July 1909 earthquakes caused fatal damage; a wooden truss roof served until a 1938 hurricane destroyed it. From 1940 Federico Mariscal redesigned and rebuilt the parish, finishing in the 1950s with a Byzantine and Moorish-influenced design, and it became the episcopal seat in 1958.

The cathedral is dedicated to Nuestra Señora de la Soledad, the patroness of Acapulco, and its name is tied to the parish founded on this site in 1555. Since 1958 it has been the episcopal seat of the Archdiocese of Acapulco, and it stands facing the Plaza Álvarez in the city center.

The cathedral faces Álvarez Square in the center of Acapulco, with its entrance opening onto the plaza. The interior, decorated with gold tiles and mosaics, is visited around the hours of Catholic worship; check locally before going, since the sources give no fixed visiting times. Dress respectfully, as this is the seat of the Archdiocese of Acapulco.

The 1909 July earthquakes fatally damaged the unfinished building designed by Adamo Boari in 1904, so a wooden-armour roof was installed and stayed until a 1938 hurricane destroyed it. Federico Mariscal then led the 1940 reconstruction, finished in the 1950s, which gave the church its Byzantine and Moorish character.
