Gumaca Cathedral

The Cathedral of San Diego de Alcala stands with a three-level belfry and features coral stone blocks and brick construction throughout its structure.

The Franciscans established the original church in 1582, which underwent relocation to Alabat island in 1638 before returning to its present location.

The cathedral maintains its role as the central religious institution of the Diocese of Gumaca, conducting regular masses and religious ceremonies for the community.

Located in Barangay San Diego Poblacion, the cathedral welcomes visitors daily and provides ample parking space for both private vehicles and public transportation.

The cathedral's walls, constructed from coral stone blocks, demonstrate the traditional building techniques used in Philippine religious architecture during the Spanish colonial period.
