Catedral de Teziutlán, Catholic cathedral in Teziutlán, Mexico.
Catedral de Teziutlán is a Catholic church in the city center featuring two towers and a central dome as its main architectural elements. The structure was built using distinctive pink quarry stone from Xaltipan, which gives it its recognizable appearance.
The site began as a hermitage dedicated to Saint Michael the Archangel in 1552 and later became the Chapel of the Rosary. In 1931 it was elevated to cathedral status.
The building serves as the spiritual heart of the region where residents gather for religious holidays and celebrations throughout the year. Visitors can observe the active role it plays in the daily faith life of the community.
The building is located at 700 Avenida Miguel Hidalgo in downtown Teziutlán and is easy to reach on foot. Visitors should note that access times may vary on weekends and during religious holidays.
Inside the building hangs the Santa Maria de la Asunción bell, cast in 1941 and weighing four tons. This massive bell is the largest in the structure and often surprises visitors with its size.
