Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Help, Minor basilica and Catholic cathedral in Valencia, Venezuela
The Cathedral Basilica of Our Lady of Help faces Plaza Bolivar in Valencia, featuring neoclassical architecture with white walls and symmetrical design.
Construction of the cathedral began around 1580 as a parish church during Spanish colonization, receiving its minor basilica status through Pope John XXIII's decree in 1960.
The cathedral maintains the venerated image of Our Lady of Help, which received canonical coronation approval from Pope Pius X in November 1910.
The cathedral remains open for religious services, prayer sessions, and guided tours, offering visitors access to its architectural and religious heritage.
Through extensive restoration work from 2013 to 2016, architects Sara de Atienzar and Fernando de Tovar preserved the cathedral's historical elements while updating its structure.
