Bangued Cathedral, Catholic cathedral in Bangued, Philippines.

The Saint James the Elder Cathedral Parish exhibits baroque elements with detailed facades, tall spires, and stained glass windows throughout its 73-meter structure.

The cathedral's construction started in 1722 and finished in 1807, with Spanish-Iloco forces establishing a garrison in 1598 to protect missionaries in the area.

The cathedral holds regular masses and ceremonies, serving as the central religious institution for the Catholic community of Bangued and surrounding areas.

Located opposite the town plaza in Barangay Zone 6 Poblacion, the cathedral maintains regular service schedules and welcomes visitors throughout the week.

During World War II, only the walls and bell tower survived a bombing in 1945, leading to extensive reconstruction efforts starting in 1947.
