Maasin Cathedral, Roman Catholic cathedral in Maasin City, Philippines
The Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption features a modern design with baroque architectural elements, including a triangular pediment and bell tower.
The cathedral's foundation dates to 1700 when Jesuit priests established the first structure, which underwent multiple reconstructions until its completion in 1968.
A 200-year-old antique statue of Nuestra Señora de la Asunción, known as the Patrona, remains an essential element of the cathedral's heritage.
The Cathedral administers 38 parishes across six vicariates, covering 2,505 square kilometers of Southern Leyte province for regular Mass services and ceremonies.
In 2024, the religious structure received recognition as a National Shrine, marking its importance within the Philippine Catholic community.
