St. James Cathedral, Saltillo, 18th-century Catholic cathedral in downtown Saltillo, Mexico.
The cathedral features a three-section facade with carved limestone details, paired Solomonic columns, and a prominent papal shield carved in wood at its entrance.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1745 under priest Felipe Suarez de Estrada, and it received cathedral status in 1891 through a papal bull by Pope Leo XIII.
The interior displays 45 colonial-era oil paintings, including notable works like The Holy Family and multiple representations of the Virgin of Guadalupe.
The cathedral opens daily from 8:00 AM to 1:00 PM and 4:00 PM to 8:00 PM, located at the intersection of Hidalgo and Juarez streets.
The cathedral tower, completed in 1897, stands as the tallest religious structure in northern Mexico, featuring three distinct sections topped with an iron cross.
